No need to disable, I just nolonger bother using it. Did not change
any mouse defaults, but to clarify, when connected to my favorite bbs,
when doing a scan for new files there is a 'hit esc to exit' and
neither mouse button will work, and when clicking on hot key commands
it is not always the same button that works. As I always call the
same board, I could eventually memorize. But mousing would maybe
only be faster for someone who does not know how or is unable to type.
Merry Christmass and a Joyous New Year!
