Someone I know takes a shower with his keyboard (Get all of that kinky stuff
out of your head...:) he says that the steam and the heat will help clean it,
and as long as you let it dry long enough it'll still work. I dunno if
that'll help you right now, but you know hey... 

I breed all sorts of dead computer stuff... Mostly computers. My computers
usually die, and it's not my fault I have old stuff and that sometimes does
just quit working.
