    Hi,

    This problem only started yesterday, with no obvious reason. I've got Windows 7 and the calculator has suddenly started opening multiple times randomly. In fact, in the time I've begun typing this message it has now opened 14 times, and opens faster and more frequently the more I type!! I've run a virus scan and havent found anything. What could be causing this???

    Do you have a keyboard with a calculator key on it (I have one!)? Maybe something stupid like something hitting off the key?

    check your local Task Scheduler. Might have gotten in there somehow.

    (BTW: check out your local Task Scheduler anyway. Lots of stuff in there by default since Vista)

    Try a different keyboard, same thing happened to me (search kept opening usually) it was a fancy keyboard an all.
