That also happens in Open Office, which can be very annoying when you do it by accident. I should really switch to LibreOffice when I figure out how to import my macros into it.

I still haven't installed any office-suite (see how vanilla I'm going  ;D ), but thanks for your find!

To clarify, I just meant the Alt bringing up the menus when you hit it on its own. I don't use a screenlock so I can't confirm the overall issue of the thread or otherwise.

The Alt key in LO doesn't affect screen locking .. or at least I can't replicate the issue.
