Does anyone know of a way to shut off the caps lock button on standard Windows keyboard? If there is one?

run it to import into the registry Code: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout]
"Scancode Map"=hex:00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,02,00,00,00,00,00,3a,00,00,00,00,00

On every fresh install of Windows it's the first tool that goes on to remap the Caps Lock and Num Lock keys. I turn the caps lock into Right Alt and Num Lock into Tab. Makes for much easier data entry and a more varied way to enter things like @ on my Swedish keyboard.
Caps lock annoys me, and Num Lock is possibly the most stupid hold over from the old PC. When would I ever NOT want the number keys to function as number keys?

Anyway, CRUISE CONTROL FOR COOL.

This is the reason I never let anything but myself decide what sites may be bad. There is nothing wrong with that site whatsoever, I can assure you!

Maybe you're right, and my Norton security has made a mistake, but there's no way for me to know that. I'd rather be safe than sorry.
