I'm addicted to my Razer Death Adder mouse. It's nothing fancy, but has two programable buttons on the left side for my thumb. One takes me forward one page and one takes me back one page. When I'm working on someone else's computer, I find myself tapping the side of their mouse with my thumb! Call me lazy, but I go grrrrr.... when I have to actually go click on the back button!
I'm afraid I'd be like you, Jenny, and constantly making inadvertent gestures. This mouse is only 1800 dpi, but I'd be doing it all the time.
Once again, weeds are my life!

I'm addicted to my Razer Death Adder mouse. It's nothing fancy, but has two programable buttons on the left side for my thumb. One takes me forward one page and one takes me back one page. My comes-with-the-keyboard-Logitech has those buttons, too. Do I ever use them? Nope. For some reason, I find the thumb business awkward and usually hit the wrong one. It's not awkward to put a bit of pressure on the right mouse button since my hand is draped over the mouse anyway. When I'm working on someone else's computer, I find myself tapping the side of their mouse with my thumb! Call me lazy, but I go grrrrr.... when I have to actually go click on the back button! Now, see? If they had Opera, you could just exercise your middle finger on the right mouse button. Hehe. I'm afraid I'd be like you, Jenny, and constantly making inadvertent gestures. The gestures I make sometimes aren't inadvertent. They do require lifting the mouse hand, though. Gil.

I inadvertly installed Google and Chrome. I would like to remove Chrome and keep Goolge.
As I have never done anything like this before would you tell me how to remove Chrome.
Thanks

Jfi, you can go into the Control Panel and click on the Programs and Features icon. Let it load the programs on your computer then scroll down until you see the Chrome file. Either double click on that file, or single click the file name, then go to the top where it says Uninstall/Change and click there. You should be asked if you want to uninstall the program and just click yes/ok, whichever you see.
Then go to Start and in the Search programs and files, type in Chrome and note if any files show up. If they do find where they're stored so you can go to that location and delete them.
Gil, using the middle mouse button too long can get one into trouble when waving to someone.

I went to control panel and I was able to delete the Chrome.
Then I went to run and removed (I hope) all of the rest of chrome.
Thank you
