      I try to reproduce the problem on another computer with notepad - and i found what seems to be the problem.

      on Column Mode Select (Alt + Left click)
      when i try to type in any keyboard layout other than english i get the same result i wrote about ablove

      Example:
      when i press shift + f - the result is black box with RS in it....
      shift+k = Black box - GS
      shift+o = Black Box - DC4

      So it looks like i have activated Constant Column Mode Select - on the first PC
      So I would appreciate any idea how to turn this off....

      Thanks in advance

        I have the same problem on XP SP3 with Romanian characters.  ș Ș ț Ț

        In fact it's a keyboard bug related to a big number of unicode characters - I suspect that all extended Unicode characters.

    Hi - this seems to be caused by some character set / font changes from XP to Vista and newer. More details as I've figured them so far at

    http://razvan.cosma.name/weblog/index.php?m=10&y=09&entry=entry091020-212421 for Romanian

    and

    http://blog.veni.com/?p=144 for Bulgarian

    Noteapd++ doesn't display either correctly yet, even after the "expansion font update". Other applications do work.

    The solution was to replace the needed fonts - Courier New, Andale, other monospace - with equivalents from an OS X system.
