Incredibly annoying keyboard problem

My laptop (Toshiba M200) keyboard has suddenly decided that I am usually pressing the ‘Ctrl’ key. It’s like the key is stuck. If I keep pressing it over and over and over again, it will finally clear – for a few minutes. Then I’ll be in the middle of tying and suddenly I’ll be reformatting text, opening new windows, closing them again…

This sucks.

This happens to me ALL THE TIME. It's so freaking annoying. Any idea how to fix it?

After a few days, it suddenly stopped happening -- well, mostly. It still happened occasionally, but much more rarely. I just went ahead and replaced the keyboard.
