cannot type "@" in Us keyboard

[vignesh]

i want to type <email address hidden> and i am using a us keyboard.

1.i tried type(<email address hidden>)
2.I tried paste(<email address hidden>)
3.Then i treid the following
wait(2)
type("jason_r")
wait(3)
paste("@")
wait(2)
type("ptprinters.com")

Question:
Either of this cases there is no consistency and sintead of character "@" letter "2" gets typed.rarely @ gets types but when i close my browser and then reopen the same it is again typing "2".

I am performing this on a flex/flash content player application which is browser based.
Please help me this is a blocker for me.These are my configurations.This is a critical issue for the delivery

paste should work:
paste("<email address hidden>")

if the caret is positioned in the right input field in this moments.
When filling fields using paste and then type(some-keys), intervening short wait()'s sometimes help.
