1. RE: keyboard problems

Prevent from running at startup?
  Locate the annoying things in all the startup places.
  [Start], Run, Msconfig, [OK]
  If you have it then it can help.
  But be careful.  Look under the startup tab.
  If you don't have Msconfig then Good luck.
  I'm not going to list all those dangerous registry locations here.
Prevent from running at all?
  Locate the script interpreting programs.
  Wscript.exe, CScript.exe, VBScript.dll, and Jscript.dll
  Rename them AND
  Either watch windows complain OR
  DANGEROUSLY Remove all references to them from the registry.
Stop currently running VBS program?
  CTRL-ALT-DEL
  Locate the running script interpreter.
  Wscript.exe, CScript.exe, VBScript.dll, or Jscript.dll
  Select it and [End Task]

        Good Luck

2. RE: keyboard problems

I'm not terribly familiar with Exotica's API but I would assume that 
there are routines to get the status of what keys are pressed on the 
keyboard.  In your movement loop, you'd check the status of the arrow 
keys and move the character based on what keys are pressed.
