i am in need of some insight that i am hopping someone might have.

i (as i am sure most of you as well) have a multi-button mouse. i have to date only been able to get functionality from buttons 1,2, and 3 (left, right, and middle). i am searching for the way in which to enable buttons 4, 5, 6, etc.

can anyone point me in the correct direction for this inquiry or tell me to "go pound sand - it can't be done".

My mouse is a logitech g7 and it came with software to program for example the x key to my thumb button. I can then program the x key in the game to any function I like. So while the game may limit the mouse to 3 buttons the software allows me to use the others by assigning key strokes to the buttons.

Found this in that link...

As for the mouse half of this duo, it is flawless. You can use the wireless mouse immediately after the fingerprint reader/receiver is installed, but to get the full benefits from this five-button mouse, you need to install the software. Doing this takes mere seconds and enables the tilt-wheel scrolling feature. The software is very intuitive and allows you to customize the buttons with a variety of commands, including back and forward on the Internet (these work with browsers other than IE).

So you should have software to do this.... if not I'm sure you can download it.
