Detailed Unit Info popup 'feature'

In a tournament game I selected the detailed unit info using the button in the side bar. Now whenever I select a unit the popup appears with an X to cancel it. But when I cancel it the unit is now unselected. So I can't select a unit and actually do anything.

I have tried turning detailed unit info on and off several times but the popups still appear.

Fortunately, ALT-Tabing out of the game to come here and post seems to have stopped the popups as when I go back to the game I can now select and give orders without the popups appearing.

Very strange. Sounds like somehow the game treated the CTRL key as permanently pressed. Not quite sure how that can happen.

Thanks! Your response helped me realise what was going on. I have multiple keyboards connected to this machine. The reason why typing here solved the problem was that it meant I swapped keyboards to do so. I am now looking at why one of the keyboards is sending rogue Ctrl.
