Nicotine has never been addictive to me, whatsoever, no matter how many years I've smoked or how many I smoke a day.
I use the slightly cheaper MS Wheelmouse Optical on most computers I have access to, and I never install the intellimouse software. I up the polling rate a bit using the software tweak that Ely posted a while back, to get a slightly better response from it, but beyond that it just works perfectly right out of the box.Not sure why mouse3 wouldn't work on what's essentially a better version of the same mouse...
