I like the additional functionality offered by the Windows key on many of the newer keyboards. It is possible to disable feature, however. With this Registry edit, you can disable its use:

Hive: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
Key: System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout
Name: Scancode Map
Data Type: REG_BINARY
Value: 00000000000000000300000000005BE000005CE000000000


You will probably need to create this value, as it is not present by default. You may wish to cut and paste the value from this page to guard against typos
