I have a question about How do I install, remove, or re-install one of the components that came with Windows?:

How can I disable the two Windows start buttons on my keyboard? I am constantly hitting them by mistake and booting myself out of whatever application I happen to be in at the time.

i remember someone who used to stick dimes between the keys and the body of the keyboard...

try searching the web for a keyboard mapping program. maybe you could turn them into something harmless like extra shift keys.

Don't know if it would work with your keyboard ,but 
if you can find  ,online , the MS IntelliType software,
it has options in it for changing / turning off those 
Windows keys on the keyboard.

My keyboard is an MS Internet Pro Keyboard , with
extra internet hot keys and such.

Again , if yours is a generic keyboard with windows
keys on it , then I don't know if the software would
have any effect.

Good Luck
