    Idle Buddy

    Hi Gary

    Idle Buddy Hides under different names, it is hard to find and difficult to uninstall because of that . . .

    Open the old Control Panel (click your Start Button, then just type control and hit Enter)

    Go to Programs and Features

    First look for Idle Buddy, it is unlikely it will have that name, then look for something like 'work group inc'

    If you still cannot find Idle Buddy, even under a different name, order the list in Programs and Features by clicking on the 'Installed On' column header so that arrow faces down

    That will put the list in a state so the most recently installed apps will be at the top, do you see anything suspicious there?

    How do I change scroll direction of a mouse NOT listed under Mice?

    Thanks; yes, those are great directions and did work to change the direction of the wired mouse that came with the computer. But the mouse I'm using doesn't show up as a mouse in the hardware list, so I can't follow the rest of those steps. I need the mouse to appear on the list of mice in order to complete this sequence.
