Or create your own alternate keymap with the officially sanctioned Microsoft keyboard layout creator[0] (I used it to recreate the exact Apple French layout[1]). Advantages are you can easily reinstall it, it does not need external software, and you can switch layouts easily with the OS language bar.
I really thought some time about remapping the / on the german keyboard (which is Shift-7) to 7 and vice versa (yeah, http:77site.com7foo7bar7page.html). But in the meantime I learned to hit the keys properly and switched to another system altogether.
