Without being able to offer a solution, I would like to point out that
this is because the numpad enter key evaluates the cell contents in
Mathematica (just like shift+enter). It is possible to remove this
function of the keypad enter key by editing C:\Program Files\Wolfram
Research\Mathematica\6.0\SystemFiles\FrontEnd\TextResources\Windows\KeyEventTranslations.tr
(on non-Windows platforms the path is slightly different), but if you
choose to do this, be very careful, back up the file before editing, and
do not create any extra .tr files in those directories.
