Weird Desktop behaviour?

Does any one have an idea of why my system sometimes thinks that i have my shift/alt/ctrl
keys held down on my keyboard when im moving icons around on my desktop? An example
of this might be, I move a file on my desktop and it creates short cuts to the file
I'm moving instead of moving it. Or when i double click a file it opens the file
properties instead. Also another weird thing it's doing is I can't seem to type the
letter 'v' on my desktop (like when renaming files) sometimes it does it with 's'
as well. I have to tap on my shift/alt/ctrl keys a few times before my system goes
back to normal. Another thing my system does is when I'm trying to drag n drop a
file from one folder to another, when i get to the edge of the folder the file sort
of hangs at the edge of the folder no matter how far I move my mouse. I usually have
to let go and do it again before I can get the file to go out side the window edge.
Strange. Any ideas/help would be greatly appreciated!
Oh and yes, I have checked my system for viruses/spyware, etc and the like with several
different programs. My system is clean =/, good mouse batteries too, keyboard is
wired type.
