Q: Computer extremly strange!!!
My Mac is acting extremly strange. It started about 2 hours after I cleaned the keys on my wired apple keyboard and the keys Q A Z and left shift stopped working. I unplugged it plugged it back in still didn't work. I plugged it into my MacBook same problem. I plugged it back into my iMac and all the keys didn't work besides the numbers and symbols. Restarted the computer didn't do anything. I completely shut it down and pulled the power cord for 5 minutes and turned it on. The keys worked besides the first set I mentioned and at the login screen when I tried clicking on the name to enter it my cursor turned into a + and wouldn't allow me to click. It's kinda creeping me out please help me.

If there is liquid intrusion there is a possibility that overnight, in a day, or several days that the keyboard will "dry out," but in lieu of that, I would recommend obtaining another keyboard.
OBTW, I do not suspect that your computer is physically damaged, although there may be corrupted caches, which can only be cleared by completing the login process.
