Dean,

Where can I find a copy of SharkKeys?

It is possible to reassign or disable most any keys on most any Windows
computer.  My favorite tool for doing this is SharpKeys.  I know it works on
Vista, so it likely works on Windows 7, and it's quite accessible.

Some laptops I've seen use controls for those buttons that seem to
sense the presence of your hand, which means you've pressed a button
before you know you found it.  If that happens to be a mute button,
you're in for a fun afternoon.

Hi All,

Is it possible to completely disable the keys on a laptop above the
function keys?  These are the keys that mute the sound if pressed, dims
the screen etc.  Thanks in advance for your help!
