ANSWER for Win2k - you can customize but not with the tool noted here!

Microsoft has a registry area for customizing keyboards pretty much
any way you like. See instructions at
http://www.microsoft.com/hwdev/tech/input/w2kscan-map.asp
Here is an example, and some sample scan codes:
* Format of data is: 0,0,NN000000,[mappings],0
Where "NN" is number of mappings plus one,
and mappings are TTTTFFFF (T=to,F=from).
(Tech folks: all of this is byte-swapped little-endian...)
* I want to make the caps lock key be ctrl:
0,0,02000000,1d003a00,0
* Open regedt32, go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard
Layout
(note: NOT "Keyboard Layouts" in plural, which also exists)
* Edit->Add Value, name: Scancode Map, data type REG_BINARY
* Data (it wants everything filled in in hex! sigh...)
000000000000000002000000001d003a00000000
And here are some key codes: these are in the data
order needed to plug into my example above.
Left Alt 38,00
Right Alt 38,E0
Left Ctrl 1D,00
Right Ctrl 1D,E0
Left Shift 2A,00
Right Shift 46,00
Caps Lock 3A,00
Left Windows 5B,E0
Right Windows 5C,E0

L&G,
just to avoid typing WWW:SOMEWEB:TO when trying to type www.someweb.to, you may want
to have a look at this freeware:
