WheelsOfVolumeFreeware application that allows you to control the volume of your computer using the mousewheel. When the mouse wheel is clicked (middle mouse button) the sound will be muted. Extremely intuitive in use and uses very litle resources.

The prime purpose of the KatMouse utility is to enhance the functionality of mice with a scroll wheel, offering 'universal' scrolling. Moving the mouse wheel will scroll the window directly beneath the mouse cursor (not the one with the keyboard focus, which is the default on Windows OSes). Another feature involves the wheel button. Since the wheel button is not consistently used in Windows, KatMouse can use it for a kind of task switching: with a click of the wheel button you can push a window to the buttom of the stack of windows that is your desktop, making a recovered window the active window. Note: KatMouse does not work together with Logitech Mouseware.

Soundy Mouse allows you to add sound to your mouse movement, this sound is played through your PC-Speaker.

Notice: This is 100% freeware; No ads, banners, spyware, or nags.

This is a utility program for quickly switching the mouse button assignment between left-handed and right-handed modes.

Telecurs (teleport cursor) is a utility to automatically move the mouse cursor to a tab or button in a standard dialog box. After the dialog closes, the cursor can be moved back to its original position.

Free Mouse is Windows utility I've written just for fun! Do you remember PacMan? When you were at the right side of the screen you reappeared at the left side - Free Mouse let you do the same with your mouse pointer, when it goes off the screen at the right it comes back on at the left. I confess that you have to get used to this new mouse behaviour but sometimes it can help you.

Noisy Mouse is a simple program that adds separate sounds to right, left, and middle mouse button actions. It adds the three selections to the Windows Sounds properties, allowing you to use the native Control Panel applet to assign any of the three files included, or any .wav file your prefer. Noisy Mouse optionally resides in your system tray to provide access to editing the sounds or terminating the program anytime you don't want to hear the sounds. If you enjoy having your computer narrate your mouse moves, this freeware program is for you. An even more practical use would be to associate specific files with each click, so participants in learning sessions would be able to differentiate the left- and right-mouse clicks with auditory cues.

ThumbTrack holds the scroll box (thumb) for you, and lets you scroll without the need to hold the left mouse button pressed. Every time that you start dragging the scroll box you can release the left mouse button and continue your scrolling just by moving the mouse.
