Tab Function goes out of control

[Maiyuu]

I've had quite a few problems with my tab function as of recently. It seems that out of no where, it goes haywire and starts targeting EVERYTHING on my screen in a super fast way. I don't even have to be hitting my "change target" button for it to go off either, it does it on its own.

At first I thought it was my keyboard (in case I DID hit the change target button and it got stuck) so I took out the batteries. Nothing. It still cycled like mad. I have even used the windowed mode to see if it was affecting my computer (outside of FFXIV), but nothing.

I have to completely exit FFXIV in order for it to reset. Just going to the character select screen doesn't do it.

It seems that a few patches ago (within this month) was when it started to do it.

No, that's the thing, I'm NOT pressing the tab key. It cycles over and over even if I am not NEAR that key, I've just stood there and casted something on myself and it goes off. I don't mind you moving it (I'm not sure where this post would go) I just figured it was a bug of some sort because this issue does NOT affect my computer at all. Only during the time when I play FFXIV.

Maiyuu, it happens to me too, I found out that my wireless keyboard is at fault for some reason, unplugging the keyboard does not help, what I end up doing just type anything on another program real quick to solve that issue and it stops. I'm using windowed mode with the fullscreen trick, but the problem is always cause by my keyboard.
