It's called the "Sticky keys" feature. I get it regularly when using the periscope. When it happens I immediately press the <Backspace> button to pause the game. Then, I wait for Windows to finish loading and bringing up the pup-up. When the pc has settled completely, I merely press cancel and then click on the SHIII button in the taskbar. I then safely return to SHIII - never crashed or lost data because of it. Just be patient and try it.

Kind regards,
