Don't know if WizMouse does this. I tried Katmouse once and had problems. Maybe I'll give it another go. Sure wish I could find something to totally replace Intellipoint though, since I'm using an MS mouse. -- John Corliss BS206.

Scroll works fine but you need to click to select focus, so you'll probably need to add Wizmouse to suit your needs. Works with any ps2 (and probably usb) mouse from the cheapest to gold plated.

Unfortunately, I've become addicted to using my wheel-click to simulate double clicking. If I dump Intellipoint, I lose that. -- John Corliss BS206.

Katmouse does this too, in XP, Vista and 7 too http://kickme.to/katmouse -- HTH ClueLess
