3 Button Mice

In the registry there is a key

For a BUS mouse:
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
 \SYSTEM
  \CurrentControlSet
   \Services
    \Busmouse
     \Parameters

For a Com port mouse:
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
 \SYSTEM
  \CurrentControlSet
   \Services
    \i8042prt
     \Parameters


There is a setting there called NumberOfButtons that you can set for 3, but 
then the application must support the extra button for it to be of use.

There is also a program in the libs on the NTWORK forum called Clicker that 
can program the buttons to do different things.
