I’m really getting tired of my apostrophe key not working correctly. Apostrophe should NOT put me into the control-f find field. It should just put out an apostrophe. How many computers are going to do this to me? After it happens, I have to go to another app, type an apostrophe, then go back to firefox, at which point typing an apostrophe will show an apostrophe, instead of putting me into the search dialog. Multiple computers & operating systems & locales involved. . .

`Hmm, I can’t seem to reproduce this “issue”`
What context are you in when it happens? In the middle of typing in a `textarea`, like the one I’m typing in right ‘now’?
Firefox has been my primary browser, on multiple computers with different operating systems, for a couple of years, now. I’ve never encountered that ‘problem’.

I believe it has to do with Ultramon’s functionality to move a program from one screen to the other. It tends to happen after I do that. (And I have it installed at home and at work.)
Of course, this problem doesn’t exist with IE or Flock (I don’t think) or any other program.
