Why doesn't the "k" key remap correctly?

Hi,

I just started using Vim (about 3 days old), and I am very optimistic about
it's potential.

Unfortunately, I have spent the last day searching for a solution to my
issue, and my optimism is becoming frustration :/

I am trying to remap the "k" key, so that up is accessible differently.
What end up happening is, upon remapping, my new up key (when pressed)
performs an "up" and moves one to the right. Additionally, when the cursor
reaches a blank line between two lines it will not go up any further unless
I use the arrow keys. I have remapped the left, right, and down too, and
those work fine.

So what am I doing wrong?

Here is the background info you are undoubtedly curious about :)

1. I'm using Gvim and the Vim version is 7.3.35 and I on Ubunut 11.04
2. I am using Dvorak keyboard, and want to remap the "holy" hjkl to htcn
3. I performed mkv command to get my .vimrc, and have been editing from
there (below is my .vimrc file)

Thanks in advance for any advice you can provide,
The Last Airbender
