Hello! I run 10.6.8 on a Macbook Pro and recently did a software update. Now, whether after 5 minutes or 5 hours, my keyboard functions as if the alt key is held down, my apps close, and I'm logged out. Logging back is fine, and everything is normal until it repeats said behavior.

My Console log looks something like this, for software ranging from Google Chrome to Dropbox to Write, et al.

7/8/13 1:37:07 AM Console[339] Can't open input server /Library/InputManagers/MultiClutchInputManager.bundle

I've since uninstalled MultiClutch, deleted the PrefPane, and gotten rid of the Input Managers folder, as per the advice of threads like this one https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1271980/, and EasyFind tells me no such file as MultiClutchInputManager.bundle exists on my hard drive. Despite that, that line in Console keeps repeating, and I'm guessing it's what keeps crashing my programs and logging me out, unless I'm completely wrong. It's driving me nuts, and any amount of help would be greatly appreciated.
