Check your services for that CTClicker.exe (or whatever it was). Most laptops have a keyboard input service running to monitor the keyboard since laptop keyboards are non-standard. It sounds like this is not started or is faulty for some reason.
Start in the services first and see if you can find it and if it is running or not. You could also try MSCONFIG to see if it's set as a start up service and try to find it that way.
