As stated earlier I am running Windows Vista Home Premium. This problem started several months ago, I believe after a windows update as I never install new software apart from WOW on this laptop.

@ Oathbreaker: The first link posted appears to be a 3rd party program. I do not believe having yet another program running in the backround to be a good idea while trying to multibox from my laptop. Your second link while interesting. does not really address my problem as 1. I am not running Windows XP, 2. I am not looking to kill ALL keyboard shortcuts. I love ones like CTRL-A CTRL-C, CTRL-X, CTRL-V. I am just looking to kill TAB and the F-keys.

@RobinGBrown I am using a Logitec G15 keyboard to save on the keys on my laptop, and have never installed special drivers for it. I just use it as an extended normal keyboard.
