Maybe you mean Alt-u. But...

: Scrollback keys can those also be disabled?

You can assign any function to any key or key combination. SHOW KEY
tells you what the current assignment is; SET KEY (or SET TERM KEY) can
be used to change it.
Among the "things" that you can assign to a key is a "Kermit Verb",
which has a name like \Kxxxx. The verb \Kignore means (you guessed it)
"ignore this key".
So, for example, to have Alt-u be ignored:
set key \2165 \Kignore
Put this and any other desired key settings in the K95CUSTOM.INI file,
and it will be in effect whenever K95 is started.
