Question: I press "shift" 5 times and it display sticky keys. What are those for? 

Answer: I get sticky keys when playing computer games.\n\nI think the sticky keys are for disabled people who may not be able to hold down 2 keys at the same time, for example Ctrl + F5, so it enables them to press them one at a time for the same effect.\n\nKind of annoying when you are trying to avoid incoming sniper fire in the jungles of vietnam - suddenly the game window closes and the sticky keys option comes up.
