HydraMouse

When the mouse was first invented, it was used for simply moving a cursor on the screen. The early mouse had only two buttons for performing certain actions. But in today's computer world, the mouse is different from what it was in the past, as it has many more buttons which can be configured for performing certain actions or tasks. The mouse wheel was also a great invention, allowing easy scrolling in documents and websites. But still, some users would like to have even a greater functionality of the mouse buttons. Unfortunately, the Windows operating system doesn't have a feature for configuring mouse buttons to perform certain actions. Still, there are some programs specially designed for this. One of them is HydraMouse.

This simple Windows program allows configuring the mouse buttons to perform certain actions by combining them together. In this way, you will save a lot of time, especially when dealing with repetitive actions. The program is very simple to install and can work with virtually any mouse type, no matter how many buttons it has. At the first run of the program, a configuration wizard will be displayed, allowing the user to choose his mouse producer and also to set the number of buttons available.

After completing this simple wizard, one will be presented with a simple interface, which clearly states all the commands available. There are numerous tasks added to the program, which can be performed using a combination of two or three mouse buttons. For example, by pressing the left and right button, the user can open the My Documents folder. Each command can be customized and one can add new tasks and events into the program. Each command clearly shows what buttons should be used for performing it.

The program can create mouse commands for virtually any application, including any web browser.
