you can change it back by using start and control, you are using the american setting on an english keyboard. Follow the keyboard settings, hardware, properties, and delete the american setting, it should then default back to your original. I had the same problem it took me a while to sort it out. In the meantime you can use " for@ and vice versa, but as you say it is a pain.
