The key that I never use are scroll lock and pause/break since I don't really know what they do. I sometimes use the function keys if only I remember what I used them for  huh But everything else, I use for shortcuts. Sometimes using keyboard is faster than mouse  grin

Ironically, I have indeed used Pause|Break. Can't remember where though undecided
For me, it's the thing on the right between Win and Ctrl.

The thing between is the context key, it's basically just like right clicking.

I know, it's for users who have a one-button-mouse.

I use Home and End very often - to jump to the start or end of a line or form field, for quicker fixing of typos or changing the address in the address bar.

I've probably never used the pause/break key, but I do a lot of different things on the computer, so I use most of the other ones.

I have it set for chatting in multiplayer games. It was set so by default in Worms 4, and I got really used to it. Although I don't play online that much Duh

Not really, I find the number pad easier to use, I can type with one hand on the left side of the keyboard, and use my right hand to do the number typing. I type faster with using the number pad then using the top number keys.

Most keyloggers don't log special keys. Imagine viewing {BACKSPACE} over and over again.  grin

Pause/Break, Scroll Lock (because I don't know what it does), Alt Gr, and a few of the Function keys.
