| 513701 | 2007-01-07 22:00:00 | Not that I can see. The Mouse Properties box is just the standard one that you get by going to: Start Control Panel Printers & other Hardware Mouse |

| 513702 | 2007-01-07 22:10:00 | Are you using an Intellipoint mouse?? It'll be easier getting ccleaner (www.ccleaner.com) to fix it. Download/install, run then click on the tools/startup tab in ccleaner. See if point32.exe is there. If it is, highlight it and press delete it. Then reboot. See if the box comes up then. |

| 513703 | 2007-01-07 23:20:00 | It's actually a Genius Optical mouse that we had to install as our HP wireless mouse receiver needs to be sent away and fixed. | leanne888 (11741) | ||
| 513704 | 2007-01-07 23:34:00 | Yup did that. No sign of point32.exe but there is a program with the following details: Key: HKLM: Run Program: mouseElf File: C:\PROGRA~1\GENIUS~1\GNETMOUSE.EXE I can't see anything else that obviously relates to the mouse. |

| 513705 | 2007-01-08 00:11:00 | Delete it if u downloaded ccleaner or type msconfig under start/run, and untick it in the startup tab. It should still work, but depending on whether this program gives it other options they may not work after. Thats the file to execute that mouse stuff. |
