Is there a way to disable the "Caps Lock is On" message in Internet Explorer?

Our intranet site does not care about letter case. The warning tends to get "stuck" on the screen periodically when changing window focus and can stay there when IE is closed. It's very annoying. Is there anyway to disable this warning??

I've searched all over Google and the only solution I can see is that you can use JavaScript to disable the warning, however we obviously cannot edit the JavaScript on every website, and actually cannot edit the JavaScript on our intranet, since it's maintained by the corporation.

Update:

I found a solution. I created an add-on for IE that executed "document.msCapsLockWarningOff = true" for every document (including iFrames and frames) that is opened.

    That's an issue for the Intranet developers to analyze and to determine if it can be solved. Make a formal request to your management about this issue and they should escalate it to corporate or whomever is up in the chain.
