381095 2005-08-14 18:02:00 Does anyone know of a quick way to disable and then re-enable the right button on a USB mouse? JJJJJ (528)
381096 2005-08-14 19:33:00 The only way I know of is via mouse properties in control panel. Cicero (40)

381099 2005-08-14 22:31:00 tho it may depend a bit on OS and what mouse drivers you are useing. tweak'e (69)
381100 2005-08-14 22:41:00 Well I certainly do not have the option. I am useing XP with the windows drivers for my mouse. No mouse software loaded. JJJJJ (528)
381101 2005-08-14 23:00:00 download and install mouse drivers. you can use the mouse manafactures drivers or MS mouse drivers or other brands such as logitech. tweak'e (69)
381102 2005-08-15 10:08:00 Just take your finger off it Jack, and curl it round the RHS of the mouse. It is quick & easy to do, and there are no problems or delays in reinstating right-clicks when you want them. Works for me.

How did you know why I want to switch it off? :)

You are right though. I've tried what you suggest, but it doesn't work for me.
It's only while I am playing my game and the mouse doesn't get much use so I keep forgetting.
Anyway I downloaded the Logitech driver and have an ikon on my task bar, so it's just a couple of clicks to turn it on and off.
