I'm about to go insane, and am close to screaming! When I hold down my TAB key, or press it 5 times, I get this stupid little thing that comes up telling me about StickyKeys. It gives me three options, one to cancel, one to use and one to adjust the settings of this stupid StickeyKeys thing. I press cancel EVERY SINGLE TIME, and I'm still left with my TAB keys not working properly. I have to restart my PC for it to go back to normal, because I get > instead of . and I can't use caps unless I put the capslock on.
Can someone please tell me how to get rid of this pathetic feature from my PC. And if someone can tell me if they actually use it, I'd be grateful, cos I think it's the most stupid waste of space thing I've ever known.

To turn on StickyKeys
StickyKeys is designed for people who have difficulty holding down two or more keys simultaneously. When a shortcut requires a key combination, such as CTRL+P, StickyKeys will enable you to press a modifier key (CTRL, ALT, or SHIFT), or the Windows logo key (), and have it remain active until another key is pressed.
Open Accessibility Options.
On the Keyboard tab, under StickyKeys, select the Use StickyKeys check box.
To turn off StickyKeys, clear the Use StickyKeys check box.
Notes
To open Accessibility Options, click Start, click Control Panel, and then double-click Accessibility Options.
If the Use shortcut check box in the Settings for StickyKeys dialog box is selected, you can turn StickyKeys on or off by pressing the SHIFT key five times.
