    possible solution if intellimouse wheel stops zooming

    One of my user's mouse stopped zooming when the wheel is rolled.
    He has an intellimouse explorer, the kind with non-tilt wheel and two thumb buttons.
    I went into the driver, and picked the troubleshoot button.
    It offered a list of running progs, and said to pick the one that was having issues. I picked acad, and hit ok, and it
    actually fixed things!

    I bet other ms drivers have this functionality too, try it if you run into this.
    I normally avoid those troubleshooters, because the computers I deal with are set up all the same, so drivers are
    typically in order. However, most systems here have logitech mice, so there was a difference.
    This kind of fix even makes it worth it to use a driver higher in version than your mouse, it usually works.
    Hope this helps some frustrated souls.
