its a dynex wireless mouse. it worked fine with the older version but i changed to the newest firefox and now my scrollwheel won't work. the thing is it works with internet explorer just fine. i hate internet explorer and would much rather use firefox but it is highly inconvenient to not be able to scroll with the mouse. i've contacted dynex but they said since it works fine with other programs, the problem is not the mouse but some setting in firefox.

My scrollring works with Firefox. These are the settings I have in about:config.

mousewheel.withnokey.action=0

mousewheel.withnokey.numlines=1

mousewheel.withnokey.sysnumlines=true
