[pchelpers] Re: Strange mouse behavior

Hi Tonia

It seems you are definitely not the first to have been baffled by 
LogitecH mice working in some but not other applications.

I found some discussions claiming that Logitech mouse drivers are "of 
low quality" (in somewhat different words) and that one should instead 
use XP's own. In addition, one should avoid Logitech's drivers anyhow 
because they also install BackWeb Lite. Here is more info:

Try Device Manager (right click My Computer>Manage>Device Manager) and 
expand 'Mice and other pointing devices', right click the listing for 
your mouse, choose Uninstall, click OK, then press F5 on the keyboard.

^ The above is assuming this system is Windows XP. If it's 98, then 
that's almost the reason it doesn't work (but similar steps may fix it - 
substituting 'Manage' for 'Properties')

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
