I posted a grousing note about my logitech mouse but I notice it
does something my desktop at home doesn't:
I see something I want to copy and paste, like the web address in
these threads, and I highlight it like normal and then rightclick the
mouse and then the box comes up with the copy-paste stuff in it.
What happens now is when I right click the mouse, the highlighted
feature un-highlights so I can't copy it. Anyone know how to get
around this? I am in a hotel with wireless internet service so I get
get on the web and am using a brand new Gateway laptop, quite
a nice one actually, internal wireless, three USB2 ports, DVD burner,
nice HD, 16x9 aspect ration LCD screen, you can watch DVD's
directly with it and has great resulution but don't know how to get
around this mouse problem. Thanks, Don.

Have you tried highlighting the text then using the keyboard to copy/ paste/ cut??

Copy - ctrl + C
Paste - crtl + V
Cut - Ctrl + X

Hope it helps!

That works, use it all the time, neurons would not flow that way
today! Still ticks me off I can't do it with the mouse!
Thanks for the reminder.
Anyone reading this should be aware you have to highlight what you
want to copy and paste first. You all probably know that but just
in case....

In my humble opinion you should go to the site of Logitech, and search in the support page for the last version of the driver for the specific model that you have bought, download it and install it. May be this work or not, but it is the most logical first step to a solution.

Cheers
