I Hate This Key Deluxe Edition 5.0



One day I came into our office and found that a keyboard on the table
of one of our leading developers was broken. Several buttons were
missing. Horrible black gaps where keys used to be. We all were
astonished. Who would commit this foolish crime? Soon, Mike, the
keyboard owner, appeared and explained that he had broken the keyboard
himself. The previous evening, he had lost a significant portion of
his code by pressing one of the extended keys accidentally. After
that, he got a screwdriver and picked out all the extended keys!

Thrilled with Mike's case, we decided to study less radical
opportunities to solve this problem. Virtually all modern keyboards
come with a set of extended keys: a pair of Windows Logo Keys and
power control keys. Multimedia keys are normally hard to be pressed
accidentally. They are small and located relatively far from the
standard keys. The most dangerous extended keys are located within the
standard key areas. These are Windows Logo keys, Caps and Num Locks,
Insert and Power Control keys. You can easily touch them when typing
or when playing games. Pressed in combination with other buttons, they
can cause unpredictable effects.

The most versatile and flexible software solution that we've found is
called "I Hate This Key" (did they know Mike's story?) This handy
utility sits in the system tray and allows you to control special key
behavior. You can either disarm the Windows Logo keys completely or in
full-screen applications only, e.g. in games. The program lets you
make your Caps and Num Lock buttons safer. No need to disable them
completely. You can choose from "Doubleclick" or "Click and hold"
modes. This is especially important for wireless keyboards that have
no Caps and Num Lock indicators. "Insert" can be automatically
disabled in text editors, yet, it can continue to function in
combinations (Ctrl+Ins, Shift+Ins etc.) Power Keys and F-Lock can be
configured as well.
