    I can't type in any boxes eg. username, chat. I can delete but can't type in characters. I had to copy and paste my username and password into the boxes to login! Please help!

    Two things:
    - Update Windows XP using Service Pack 3
    - Give me the url of your system profile. Click here and read how to do so. I need to know more especially about your graphics card.

    • There are some "Symantec" processes running in the background. It is not recommended to have two on-access background scanners running at the same time. I don't know if you intentionally left those files on your hard drive, what product they are actually from and if they are maybe left-overs from an older installation. But I would really recommend you to uninstall the "Symantec" product (if you want stay with "AVG2012" and only if it actually is an virus-scanner).
    • There also are some left-overs from some "McAfee Antivirus" software. Make sure you uninstall that too (search online for an uninstaller).
    • If you do not program/code with Java I recommend you to uninstall the JDK. Especially since it's an old version which has many vulnerabilities. Just download the latest JRE (1.6.0_u29) and install it.
    • Shutdown "AVG2012", "Steam", "Skype" and "iTunes", kill the following processes (if running) and check if your issue with KAG persists:
      • agrsmmsg.exe (only if you are not connecting to the Internet using the internal 56k-modem)
      • ccapp.exe
      • ccevtmgr.exe
      • ccproxy.exe
      • ccsetmgr.exe
      • ipodservice.exe
      • ituneshelper.exe
      • pnkbstra.exe
      • skype.exe
      • sndsrvc.exe
      • toolbarupdater.exe
    • Start the game, join a server, try to write something (just like you always do), close KAG and add "system.txt", "app.txt" and the latest "console-XXX.txt" (inside the "Logs"-folder) to your next post.
    Enough so far.

    You probably have your keyboard set to some other language, mine was on Serbian so when I changed it to EN I could type. Just change it to english and you can type again! :)
