Yes, my driver is similar to yours. It is a bit older, but when I try to update it, a message tells me that no better fit can be found. So I guess it is appropriate. I too tried enabling program-specific settings and specifying `runemacs' and `gnuclientw' as using `None' for Wheel button (`Disabled' is not one of the possibilities I see). That doesn't solve the problem: it yanks, but it still turns on autoscroll - the same as if I just assign Auto Scroll. Something I don't understand is that if I disable program-specific settings and assign the wheel button to `None' at the general level, then no event at all is sent to Emacs from the wheel button, but if I set the wheel button to `None' as a program-specific setting for `gnuclientw' or `runemacs', then it apparently has no effect (still yanks and turns on autoscrolling). I really don't understand this. It's always worked fine for me before, until this started happening. I'm still hoping to hear from one of the Emacs developers who is a Windows specialist, such as Jason, but so far I've haven't had any luck. Anyway, thanks for your feedback. Unfortunately, I had already tried what seems to be the closest thing I have in my version of Windows (XP, SP3). Thx - Drew FWIW, these are the possible choices for the Wheel Button setting (likewise, for the other buttons). "None" is the closest I have to "Disabled".
