COMODO Internet Security picks it up as a trojan. Probably just overreacting.
I installed it anyway.

Thanks for the great script!

Another option is to use the HasBothButtonFeature registry value in Synaptics Software registry. Google for ‘HasBothButtonFeature’, you’ll find detailed instruction.

I’ve been using “Middle-Click Simulator” successfully for two years with IE.

I just switched to Firefox (3.5), and have the same problem just reported above. Using the simulated middle click on a hyperlink opens the site twice: once in a new background tab, but also in the current tab.

This works great for opening bookmarks in new tabs, but when I use it for hyperlinks, it opens it twice. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks

If anyones using the synaptics touchpad and has found your middle click with the two buttons doesn’t work after you’ve installed the new drivers, its because they are trying to phase it out
best just to stick with the old driver
