Edit: Oops, you needed a 98 entry. There's a bunch of ways to do it (easiest apparently is like the above xp link and just map that key to nothing. It might work, I don't have a 98 box to test it on. Here's a more roundabout way:

Two hardware fixes-

1) Pop the key off your keyboard. Stick it somewhere you can find it in case you ever choose to replace it.

2) Cut out a cardboard "collar" which slots under the key and stops it moving.

I use option 1). I'm afraid I can be traced by the wake of company laptops devoid of Capslock keys which I leave behind me.

I see big jewelry potential here. What better way to say, "I love you" than a caps lock necklace?
