Poorly mouse
13 Answers
I have a PC running on Windows 7 and Fire-fox 6 (I think that is the latest one). My mouse has a scroll wheely thingy on it and it isn't working today. I didn't realise how often I use it until it wasn't working.
I checked my mouse settings in my control panel and my settings in the tool/options on Fire-fox and they are fine. Could this be a FF glitch? Or is Mickey the mouse dying on me?
Help - please.

When I first got a PC I ignored the scroll wheel for years but now that I have been using it for a couple of years I really miss it.
Any solution - should I steal a mouse from the kitties and see if that works?
vivandorron - this one is about a month old. It should be working.
Bah!

Sorry wolf....I didn't realise that it was a young mouse caught in a trap.:-)
Seriously, if it were working up until today, I don't think it has anything to do with your FF browser. To me it sounds as if you have a faulty mouse.
However, as I am far from knowledgeable on even minor Computer matters, I hope that Chuck will further respond.

rsvp....I can hear your mouse squeaking as we talk. Anyway there is the old saying..."If it ain't broke don't fix it"

I'm sorry that I didn't back to squeak to you gents earlier - had to have my cat-nap.
It is one of the new mice with no ball(s) and a red light on its bottom. I do voluntary work in our local Oxfam bookshop and they have one with the ball thing - it is amazing how much dust gets inside one of those things. Great fun cleaning it :-)
