Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Useful aide reduces user mouse movements in a couple of ways, but setting one option proves difficult for some. MouseImp Pro's dialog interface is merely a set of pull-downs in a few tabs. We found the options easy to set, except for some difficulty setting the Autoshrink function. A helpful Productivity tab lists the total benefits since installing the program.
MouseImp Pro's primary function helpfully adds scroll-from-anywhere functionality to your programs. With just a user-selected click, you don't need to use scroll bars anymore. Of course, many new mice add that feature to the middle scroll wheel. This utility gives you much greater control over the feature with simple pull-downs for activation, slow scrolling, and disabling. Scrolling speed and sensitivity are also easy to set. Much less easy to set is the program's AutoShrink feature. When enabled it quickly reduces windows to just their toolbar. However, adding programs to the feature is a multistep process that doesn't always work.
Though its secondary function doesn't work as well as we'd like, MouseImp Pro's AutoScroll proves to be a great help. Users of every level who spend a lot of time scrolling will find this freeware useful.
Publisher's description
From FreeSoft411 :MouseImp is a handy tool that helps you to use your conventional mouse more efficiently. The AutoShrink feature increases your available workspace by removing toolbars from the screen so that only caption bars remain. The Direct Scroll feature makes it easier to scroll through windows. Instead of using a scroll bar, you can activate MouseImp and scroll by moving the mouse up or down anywhere in the window.

Version: MouseImp Pro Live 1
"Everyone should have one of these!"
Pros: Scroll from anywhere on the page just by holding down the right click button.
No more searching for the scroll bar than trying to find your way back.
button it functions normally. Have your cake and eat it too.Cons: It will only scroll vertically with Firefox. But there workarounds. Firefox extensions, " Scrollbar Anywhere " or " Grab and Drag "
Both will do the same function with firefox while Mouseimp handles everything else.Summary: It is extremely useful ( You will get spoiled almost immediately ) It is free
It is easy to configure and use and it is free.
