Default How to disable Middle Mouse click/scroll


I have a (relatively) new XP pro laptop (dell) and I want to disable
the mouse middle-click "Scroll" icon that appears in Word, Excel, IE, etc.

My Mouse properties doesn't have any reference to such feature (that I've found).
The only reference to Middle button is the Alps Touchpad's button definition where
clicking Both buttons is equivalent to "Middle Button Click". I'm using an old
Logitech USB First Mouse+ and I didn't load any drivers for it. The properties
indicate that it's using Microsoft's driver of 7/1/2001, version 5.1.2600.0

I also have Tweak UI v 2.10.0.0 installed but I don't see anything relavent
to my problem.

Any ideas?

TIA

Nice utility. You can also use it to change the default behavior of mouse
buttons.

Hope this help, let us know!
