I just got some filler super glue, and "filled" from it to the keyboard frame. It is very nicely not moving now.

buy a microsoft keybaord. They have an option to disable caps lock and the windows key.

Not kidding eihter.

I found an old keyboard without that dumbass key on it. Doesn't really bother me, my little girls like to play their computer games and since they mainly consist of banging away on the keys, if they hit the windows key it knocks them out of the game and they cry.

Maybe you should be asking,

HOW TO POST WITHOUT USING CAPS LOCK!!!

I posted this exact same thread, nearly with the same title, not too long ago because I kept hitting that stupid key when playing Day of Defeat (which then switches to Win desktop and kills the sound, forcing a shutdown of Half-Life to reinitiate the sound :| ).

Anyway, I have a Microsoft Natural Keyboard Elite, and the easiest thing was to just pop the key right off. It didn't break, and it will easily go right back on should I decide to replace it. I was willing to break mine though.

Winkey Killer

Go dig up a copy of the old PowerToys from the Microsoft web page (remember those?). Found under the Win95 download section. There is a utility in the toolkit that you can install for remapping keys. Works under Win2k last I checked.

Download and install Microsoft Intellitype

Works w/ most keyboards, there's an option to kill the key in the software.
