I recently obtained a Wireless IntelliMouse Explorer 2.0 and cannot open tabs by
clickig links with the wheel. Other 2 button (with scroll) mice have had success.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Get a Wireless IntelliMouse Explorer
2. Click ANY link the wheel
3. Nothing happens
I doubt this is a problem with Firebird. Aren't there options in the Control
Panel that could change middle-click behaviour?
Upgrading to Intellimouse software version 5.0 causes this problem. The default
setting in the Intellimouse software performs the Windows "next window"
operation, and is captured by the mouse driver before the click gets to Mozilla.
Changing the behavior of the middle button in Intellimouse's control panel to
the old default "AutoScroll" restores appropriate behavior.
marking INVALID, not a firefox bug.
