So I can use the hot buttons   Bret Dalldorf It appears to be a culprit - in that it makes my pc hang when shutting down or restarting   Pk Its also for my keyboard to run the extra buttons such as the button to launch word, or the calculator etc.   Dean netropa hot key   this is supplied with many keyboards,without this file some of my hotkeys wont work, this program has tried to attempt internet access on my pc for reasons unknown, this file is also linked with osd.exe (on screen display), in my opinion harmless if blocked by a firewall, if unblocked i cannot say if it is a risk.   OKI On some PCs (like HP Pavillion), pings an HP server, to determine whether to light the "on line" LED or not - your choice to evaluate the interest of this ! Moreover, overrides apps fct keys behaviours, and that may be a pain   Alex I have disabled it. It had become a resource hog. So far so good.   Donald G. Alows mulitmedia functions to work on some keyboards. It does connect to the internet a lot, who knows why.   TC allows shortcut keys to be used on your keyboard   it runs in the back ground causing my computer to run slower when I am accessing the web and other usages on my computer.

Sincerely, Michael   David Henderson I've been stuck with program when installing "ViewSonic's" Keyboard. I have experienced resource hogging, the computer going on and off line by itself as well. I have lost use of some of the hot keys when I've ended its processing. I'm running AVG and AdAware and neither have perceived it as a threat. I still live uncomfortably with it though.   Skunr I had to delete this file for installation of a MS Entertainment 7000 keyboard; mmkeybd.exe gives a malfunction of the F-keys resulting in a reset of the computer   volcano it makes my pc very slowly and i haven´t got any software or keyboards from netropa or hama...well, yust my usb multifunction card is from hama.   If you know more about MMKeybd.exe, share your knowledge and help other users.
