Clear description of the problem:I just started using X-Mouse when my old MS Wireless Laser 7000 mouse finally died on me. For over a decade, I have been used to the one thumb button being Magnifier (my eyes aren't what they used to be.) and really can't live without it. I was able to map that button in X-Moue just fine. Ad it does work...most of the time. OR really, it works all of the time. But some times, it ALSO performs the regular feature of BACK on the browser. This wouldn't be the worst thing in the world if I often didn't decide I needed Magnifier while in the middle of typing something in a form, or a comment section, or whatever. So when it then decides to go Back, it deletes it all.
I notice that it ALWAYS does this the first time I press the button after a reboot. And it seems to do it whenever I haven't pressed it in awhile.
To be clear, I an not using any other software. I am using a crappy $15 wireless mouse that otherwise has no way to change things. I didn't install any special drivers for the mouse, and I don't think it did it automatically because it was ready to use as soon as I plugged in the receiver. And like I said, it always will bring up magnifier like ti is supposed to. It is just that sometimes, it ALSO performs its usual BACK function. Am I missing something obvious?
