OMG I KNOW WHAT IS DOING THAT!

It happens to me, too. Instead of closing the computer, go over to the bottom right corner of the screen, and there should be a little keyboard (yes, on the start bar). Click on that, and choose "English". Your keyboard is attempting to turn your punctuation to French punctuation.

Also, I believe it happens when you hit "CTRL" and other keys, instead of "Shift" and other keys, while capitalizing. That's when it happens to me. Drives me nuts.
