    The juice has probably dried and made under the keys sticky. Your best bet is to use some cotton buds dipped in water or some cleaning fluid and try to wipe around and under the keys, holding down the key next to the one you want to get under might help if they're close together. You can try spraying a small amount of water on it the keyboard or using a damp cloth be careful though it could break something if it's too much.

    Failing that depending on the netbook it's possible to replace the keyboard of you could get a USB keyboard and plug that into it.

    I know, I know you will probably be aware of this but please make sure you switch the laptop off and unplug the cable when using liquid anywhere near it! Good luck...

    what good will that do?

    how about taking out the battery too?
