In Win2k at least, you can turn on most of these options with a key 
combo (things like press shift 5 times, hold a key down for some length 
of time, etc).  The first time you perform the key combo it pops up a 
dialog asking you if you really want to enable the feature and gives you 
a chance to turn it off permanently (can be reenabled in the control 
panel).  This seems to work quite well.
