Problems with new IntelliType Pro

[Klaatu]

I recently upgraded to Intellitype Pro 5.2 from 5.0 on XP Home (SP1)
and am now experiencing these repeatable problems:

1. When I have iTunes 4.6 playing a tune and I push the "Play/Pause"
button on my Microsoft Wireless Multimedia keyboard, the song pauses
AND Windows Media Player opens. I'd prefer for this not to happen,
simply for the song to pause. The "Play/Pause" button is the only MM
key that also causes WMP to launch; "Previous", "Next" and "Stop" all
work as expected.

2. When I have MusicMatch 9.0 playing a tune and I push any of the
multimedia control keys ("Play/Pause", "Stop", "Previous", "Next"),
MusicMatch pops up an error and says it has to close, but then just
freezes up. Only a CTRL-ALT-DEL can close it.

Winamp 5.04 seems to be the only music player I have left that works
as expected with the multimedia keys.

I am certain I did not have these problems with ITP 5.0, but now they
persist even if I uninstall 5.2 and revert to 5.0.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Well, there are only a couple of things you can do. Check the settings
you have for each of these buttons in your Keyboard Settings in the
Control Panel. Second, go back to version 5.0 until the software makers
have released a new version that may work better with the new software.
