Sounds like a stuck key to me.

Chances are that some foreign matter is caught in there.
Power down the system first, disconnect the keyboard turn it upside down and shake it.
Sometime a little tapping will help dislodge the foreign matter from under the key
Then use a vacuum cleaner to vacuum the keys out.
I would not recommend trying to remove any keys they can be easily broken.
