I have a (relatively) new XP pro laptop (dell) and I want to disable

the mouse middle-click "Scroll" function that appears in Word, Excel, IE, etc.

 

My Mouse properties doesn't have any reference to such feature (that I've found).

The only reference to Middle button is the Alps Touchpad's button definition where

clicking Both buttons is equivalent to "Middle Button Click". I'm using an old

Logitech USB First Mouse+ and I didn't load any drivers for it. The properties

indicate that it's using Microsoft's driver of 7/1/2001, version 5.1.2600.0

 

I also have Tweak UI v 2.10.0.0 installed but I don't see anything relavent

to my problem.

 

Any ideas?

 

TIA

    Install a driver for that specific mouse, or get a newer mouse. "First

    Mouse+" wasn't listed here though:
