Another thought: Does it happen in notepad or wordpad?

Well, it just happened while I typed my reply to you. The two sentences that
I was typind got erased. No, I have not tried safe mode and have not done a
system restore, although, I am getting close to that option. I will try
notepad, but since it happened here, I think it can happen anywhere. Thanks
for helping....

It's like a ctrl-z that happens randomly no matter what application is
running. Even while typing in this reply box it could happen.

This happens to me too, but not all the time. It seems to be random. Do you have a Microsoft Wireless keyboard 5000?

1) Change batteries in keyboard.
2) Change to a wired keyboard
3) This assumes you're not using a touchpad, where it's darned easy to
erase things you've typed if you don't have the controls tweaked right.
