Yall do know, right, that u can just disable the software that comes
w/it from running in the background & you'll never have to worry about
the buttons. I don't like it running all the time, particularly since
the scanner isn't always plugged in2 this laptop, so I nuked it. It
has no effect on the scanner's functionality, unless, of course, u
wanna use those buttons. If not, however, it's more than a pain, so ax
it. Best way for most is probly just to remove it in add/remove
programs. I personally edited the registry & took it out of the place
where it started up when windows starts, but, as stated in an earlier
post, registry editing is neither for the faint of heart nor those w/a
pausity of technical know-how, so that is not a recommendation I'd
give to most on this list. I wish it would just allow driver
installation only, but, no, of course it has to install all the other
$417 along w/it.
