My mouse broke, so I got a new one and it has two buttons on the left, which go Back and Forward in Firefox.

This is incredibly annoying, how do I turn it off?
The mouse doesn't have any disc or anything, its just a Dell Plug & Play USB.

Anyone?

go to control panel, click on the mouse button and see if you can disable it there.
If control panel doesnt show any mouse, but only a few categories, make sure to turn classic view on

Well you can try opening the mouse, and cut the wires at the buttons, or then you can just try to not press them  ;)

I'm not gonna rip the mouse to pieces, I'm buying another one (with no buttons) soon anyway.

or then you can just try to not press them  ;)

I have OCD, and keep pressing them (and other random keyboard buttons) so that isn't really an option. :razz:

Its retarded, I keep twitching and pressing the button, making me go back (or forward) which is annoying.

only thing left to do is google for some sort of drivers, and hope they have "disable" functions...

are you sure theres nothing you can change in mouse properties? :trust: i can assign any button any job i want it to do under mouse properties in control panel..

i wouldnt suggest u to remove them though, u will get used to them and they will make it easier for you ;) i kinda hated them at start too but now i cant imagine using internet without them, lol.
