at pictures.

Have you installed the software that came with the mouse?

I have the MX1000, and so do most of my work mates and as far as I can tell
ours all work fine in that capacity, I know mine does anyway.

Your best bet would be Logitech's website

Also, try reinstalling the software that came with the mouse. Be sure to
read the installation instructions carefully.
Good luck

I found that it works okay with Internet Explorer but not with other
browsers.

My solution was to reassign the buttons from Forward and Back to "keystroke"
specifying alt + left arrow for back and alt + right arrow for forward.
Seems to work in all browsers that way.
