Answer 1

Holds buttons for you so that you can press buttons one at a sime instead of pressing and holding the bottons. It also has settings for turning on and off other hotkeys and short cuts.

Answer 2

What it does is temporarily holds down a key you press, it's basically for those who can do key combinations, turn it on, (press [Shift] five times again to turn it off) then press [Ctrl]+[Alt]+{Del} one by one, you'll see how it works.

Answer 3

After the 'Shift' Key is pressed 5 times, it gives you the option of automatically pressing the key, over and over without you actually doing anything. The only way to stop it is to tap the Shift key 5 times again, or turn it off via the control panel.

Basically, the computer will press keys for you if you let it.
