Weird A in chat box?

So this is the second time it’s happened to me and I wasn’t sure if I was being monitored or if I’m just geeking out over nothing. This has happened before and it’s usually later at night and whenever I ask my guild members over teamspeak if they have this, they all deny it. What is it doing in my chat box and should I be worried?

Thank you in advance!!

Its the Microsoft IME software in windows xp, vista, 7, and 8 to type in foreign languages that are not latin-based letters such as arabic/and Asian character sets. You must have hit shift+ alt at one time. Press it again to take it off.

Wow, Yumiko — that’s good information. Thanks for providing that insight.

Hi!
I have the same problem but it appears when I push "ctrl"+"whitespace".
Very annoying because the only way to get rid of this kitten is to close the game and reopen it.
Does anyone have another solution for this?

It takes about 30 seconds to close and reopen the game. This isn’t a game-related issue and there isn’t a game-related solution. Please use the functions described above and you’ll be just fine.
