WoW foreground window activates F12 on 1 toon

I've finally gotten my monitors set up as a 3x2 grid.

I've used the setup wizard to set 1 toon per monitor, no swapping, maintain aspect window, always on top if a game window is foreground

I've got a whitelist of broadcast keystrokes: 1-7 (various macros), Space (jump), Tab (target nearest enemy), Alt-X (interact with target), F11 (hearthstone), F12 (mount)

One toon apparently hits F12 every time the window becomes the foreground window. Which means every time I have another toon loot the quest item, or accept the quest, or turn in the quest, and move back to this toon's window.

And it's only the one toon, as far as I can tell.

I've tried clearing all my sets and restarting, more than once.

I've put the toon in various slots, 1, 2, and 3 (this is a temporary trio).

I've deleted the toon within the WTF folder and reloaded (with over 100 toons among the far too many accounts, I've got a LOT of data I don't want to have to reacquire).

How did I manage to turn that on, on just that toon, and how do I turn it off? It happens only when Innerspace is running, not if I launch each instance by hand.

Thanks for whatever help y'all can give.

First and foremost I'd like to address this statement...

Using a white/blacklist is the absolute incorrect way to go about using ISBoxer. Nowhere in the World of Warcraft Quick Start Guide or any WoW setup video does it tell the user/player to set up a white/blacklist for keys on your keyboard.

I don't mean to sound like a dick, but if you want what ISBoxer has to offer it's not going to happen through white/blacklists and using such a list is only going to cripple ISBoxer's full potential. Those lists remain possible to setup because such functionality may be necessary for some games that ISBoxer is compatible with, but certainly not for World of Warcraft. I strongly recommend you ditch the whitelist and learn how to properly use Key Maps and Mapped Keys.

Each of your characters are going to use the JAMBA Master macro every time you change to their window -- You will see this in the bottom right pane if you click on each Slot of your Character Set. The JAMBA Master macro is assigned to Ctrl+Shift+F12 (which can be viewed under Game Helpers > World of Warcraft), so if you're not using JAMBA then your characters are going to be pressing this key combination every time which may be causing your unwanted behavior. You can disable the "When I switch to this character..." option and that will stop happening.
