I also Highly recomend a program called “StrokeIt”. Which is similar in nature to “All-In-One Gestures”. However it’s multi-applicational, not just limited to Firefox. It’s compatible with many common programs including Firefox, IE, Microsoft Office, Explorer, etc… (goes on and on). Each program has it’s own set of gestures that do anything from going back and forth pages, printing, saving, minimzing and 20+ other commands. As if that wasn’t enough, you can program your own commands as well.

It’s the best mouse tweek I’ve ever found, tcbmi.com/strokeit.

WOW!

Thank you for the “Tweak Your Mouse Scroll Wheel” tip! I’d never, ever, thought about it. Now I realize that I would like it to scroll 6 or perhaps 8 lines. Nothing to loose! I’ll try it out!

You can also Copy n Paste using Copy = Ctrl + Insert and Paste = Shift + Insert and Cut = Shift + Del

Thank you

Another simple way of “tweaking” a mouse is to use the scroll wheel click (i.e. pressing down on the wheel) to program it for whatever command you want.
This is available in most mouse driver software set-up. I have programmed my optical mouse wheel-click as the BACK command. This works in internet browsers and all other programs that have a BACK button! Saves a lot of time when browsing – no seeking with the back button in a far away corner of the screen with the cursor………..

John, I don’t know why I always do that! It’s definitely CNTR + V, but I keep typing CNTR + P! No idea why!

I think you meant to say CNTR + V for pasting. The shortcut CNTR + P brings up the print dialogue.
