Hey I just installed Mozilla and was wondering if you cant get the back and forward buttons on an intellimouse to work with this browser.

So that means no then.

I'm not certain, but that would be my initial guess that M$ only programmed it to be used with IE.
 
Most other browsers have stuff that IE6 DOESN'T have. To me IE is a stripped down, yet bloated at the same time, browser.

Opera has gobs of features that IE doesn't and is quite a bit faster.

Well I am so used to using these buttons that I guess Microsoft has me wooped.

It works just fine for me. Do you have the Intellimouse drivers installed?

Its the other way around, the button click fires off an event, the client program in this case Mozzilla might not handle the event properly. If they did it would work fine.

What he said. 🙂
Plus, I am more involved with Mozilla development than just using it. I am a "bug officer" or whatever they call it -- I read bug reports and either promote their status if they are valid and/or reproducible or invalidate them so as not to waste the programmers' time with them.

Help with this stuff is needed! There are currently thousands of unconfirmed (neither validated nor invalidated) bugs, because more reports are coming in than we can deal with. If anyone else feels they want and are able to do this kind of stuff, join the #kill-unco channel on irc.mozilla.org or irc.moznet.org (whichever is Mozilla's official server... I forget).

edit: So as not to give anyone the impression that Mozilla is that buggy, I should mention that A LOT of submitted bugs are duplicates of already existing and validated issues, and most bugs are problems with web pages and/or with the system, not with the browser. This is why triaging bugs is so important -- to bring only the true Mozilla bugs to the programmers' attention.
 
I've been using Mozilla as my primary browser since version .96.

For those who say that Mozilla is resource-hogging bloatware and that Opera is faster, there are some interesting speculations on those assertions over at Slashdot. In particular, IE memory usage due to its "integration" doesn't always get registered, and Opera has a crippled DOM model.
