After Effects play back won't stop playing even when I hit the space bar repeatedly

[#1]

Once I hit the spacebar the sequence keeps playing over and over and won't stop, even when Ihit the space bar or click on other parts of the project panel. I tried updating the application and it stopped for a bit but now it's still happening. Not sure what to else I can do.

Nishu,

Once I am stuck in this endless loop, is there any way I can save progress? Or do I have to force the software to crash/end task and lose the work I've done?

Thanks,

Chris
