I'm having an issue with Chrome in relation to the buttons on my mouse. [Logitech G5 Laser Mouse] I have the buttons on the mouse natively setup to specific actions, but when I use Chrome it's like it wants to use those buttons for other things. From what I can tell, from internet searches, Chrome wants to use the two thumb buttons to page-back/forward(from what other have said, and what I have observed) and the "sensitivity level" control buttons... well, they just go haywire and it results in the mouse sensitivity to be turned way down, but only in Chrome: if I go elsewhere, like FireFox or Windows Explorer, I simply press the buttons back-and-forth and they return to normal.

I use the thumb buttons to scroll up and down pages and I'd really like to be able to use that feature in Chrome, but for now I can't. I know it has little to do with the mouse bcz I've searched the net for this issue, and wile coming up with little info on it, I did find people who'd mentioned other mice.... mouses... (or whatever the plural is.) who had the same issue with Chrome.

It seems that Chrome has it's own idea of what it wants to use your mouse buttons for. Is there a way to disable this? Huh

This is the one thing keeping me from using Chrome as my main internet browser. Right now I only use it bcz I'm having issues with FF displaying Hotmail, but that's something for a completely different board.

<-----Thanks  Cheesy
P.S.
Sorry if this issue has been brought up before. I searched the message-board and didn't find anything related to this.
