File menu flashing loop unstoppable

About two days go, my file menu started flashing in a super-fast loop
in Firefox. The same problem occurs in all other programs. The
"flash" looks as if I'm pressing the alt-key about ten times per
second. As you can imagine, this is terrorizing my ability to type a
message; even this posting is taking forever to type. Pointing/
clicking is not sufferring, just typing due to keyboard shortcuts
being activated by the momentarily-dropped file menu

Is this a known malfunction? infection? Is there a fix? It's really
impossible to just work past it.

Thank you,

Hello,

Sounds like a keyboard problem. Try switching to another keyboard and see if
it resolves.
