You may be seeing a manifestation of the 'stuck modifier key' bug.
Sometimes under VNC (and sometimes even on machines that don't run VNC, when
you're at the console -- I've seen it happen) Windows will get a key-down
event for a modifier key, but no key-up event, so it'll behave like the
key's being held down.  In this case Windows is acting like your SHIFT key
is held down.  Tap both shift keys, and it should correct itself.

(You have to tap both because they have different key codes, and there's
know way of knowing which one is 'stuck.')
