Default Keyboard Shortcut Problem - OE/IE6

My wife uses a notebook with a relatively compact keyboard. When she gets
going fast, she sometimes mysteriously would find her letter disappeared and
turned up in the "sent" folder, containing the text as of the moment it
disappeared.

We figured out that she apparently was pressing the Alt key (of which there
are two immediately adjacent to the left and right of the spacebar) while
typing an "S". The quick keys (and a short test) indicate that Alt-S = Send
Now.

This happens often enough that she's at the point of getting rid of either
the notebook, or possibly me.

I have a utility which would let me disable or even reassign the Alt key(s).
But since they're used for a lot of other things in other programs, what I'd
rather do, if it's possible, is to disable the OE Alt-S command only.

Is this possible?
