SharpKeys is a utility that lets you remap pretty much any key on your keyboard. Just fire SharpKeys up, select a key, and then decide what you would like its new function to be. To get the full effect, once you're done, you can even try prying the keys off of your keyboard and rearranging them. Just a quick warning though: your spacebar probably won't fit in the spot where the K key currently resides. We figured you probably knew that already, but figured we'd issue a disclaimer just in case spacial relations aren't your thing.
Also note that if anyone follows the recommendation in this post's title Download Squad and its parent company AOL will not be held responsible for the fallout. But if you happen to snap any pictures of the ensuing fun, please send them our way.
SharpKeys is designed for Window XP, 2000 and Vista.

If this runs without actaully installing or writing to the registry I'll torture my boss with it for sure.
Otherwise, I'll torture my father in law with it!

This reminds me of a prank I did in the mid 80s when I was working for a large blue mainframe company. We switched certain keytops on a colleagues keyboard. He typed his login details, using the hunt and peck method, and when he eventually looked at the screen there was a very rude message instead of the expected user details. Much head scratching!
Another time, when hardware/firmware engineers responsible for terminal development visited, we generated an upside down character set (generating symbol/character sets was new stuff at the time). Had then foxed for quite a while.
