Weird problem. I am using Windows 7 32-bit edition and I recently noticed that whenever I select some text (in any application) and press Shift+Del, the text gets cut into my clipboard instead of just getting deleted.

Darned irritating, since I often select text by Shift+mouse drag and forget to release shift afterwards before pressing delete.

I simply want Ctrl+X to be the ONLY shortcut to the Cut operation instead. Anyways to disable the Shift+Del shortcut ?
