Anyone know how to get rid of the two floating boxes they overlay everything but don't show up on a screen shot or snippet using the snipping tool.

Then try a system restore to a date before it started.

Was the computer on when she cleaned the keyboard?

If you have a desktop can you try another keyboard and/or try your keyboard on another computer?

Your keyboard may be damaged as a result of the cleaning.

Do you have a restore point you can revert back to?

If you have a laptop or built-in keyboard the problem may be more difficult.
