Great Find guinness

My thoughts

1.) Start Minimized

2.) Switching between default and Custom settings rather than EITHER/OR

3.) The ability to map more keyboard buttons. (special buttons € and $)

I will contact the software author as soon as I can find the contact info.

I think 1 and 2 are both pretty good ideas most might like.

Tested out today...

Users: This program is valuable if your mouse suddenly dies or you're on a machine for some reason without. Its a program you won't really think about until you really need it, but then you'll certainly miss it.

Extract: You can also open with 7zip and extract the neatmouse.exe file and ignore all others. Settings are saved to settings\settings.ini

As my laptop has a messed up internal mouse device, I'm definitely going into my collection in case I forget my external.

Funny, just had my mouse-pointer go AWOL and had to log out and re-login to get it back. Testing this now...
