Those do not determine if your computer is infected with something. As for the first problem can be keyboard key is broken and causing the switch back and forth between application to (if it was wireless) try a set fresh of batteries.

You should have antivirus and a malware scanner on your computer. If you do not, simply go to www.filehippo.com and download AVG or AVAST! then download MALWAREBYTES.

WORST, if it is a RootKit, you would need to wipe drive (yes and lose data because any 'saving' of the data will transfer the rootkit as well) and a clean Windows install.
