Windows 2000/2003/XP / Freeware / 2,218 downloads

KatMouse is used to enhance the functionality of mice with a scroll wheel, offering 'universal' scrolling: moving the mouse wheel will scroll the window directly beneath the mouse cursor (not the one with the keyboard focus, which is default on Windows OSes). Another feature involves the wheel button. Since the wheel button is not consistently used in Windows, KatMouse can use it for a kind of task switching: with a click of the wheel button you can push a window to the buttom of the stack of windows that is your desktop, making a recovered window the active window.

    I have been looking for a way to make the scrolling speed in iTunes 10 cover flow view slower so I can view each album art one after the other and KatMouse allows me to do this!

    Cool program! Useful for those annoying paint programs that automatically re-center images when when you select them.

    Would do well to have a FreeWheel-type of document/application switching feature.
