In FF 3, Intellimouse ("5" buttons) back button closes only the current tab. In FF4 it closes the window. I prefer the former. How can I get FF4 to do that?
MS's Intellimouse has five "buttons" including the scroll wheel. I set left and right buttons to L-click & R-click (seems normal). I set left side button to Back and right side button to Close.
In FF3, Close closes the current tab and Ctrl-W closes the window. In FF4, this is reversed -- Close closes the window and all its tabs and Ctrl-W closes the current tab -- not my preferred behavior.
The behavior switch in FF4 may or may not have been a function of what somebody had for breakfast. It is was, then I'd like it switched back. If there was an important reason for the switch, I'd like to know.
Until FF4 reverts to FF3 behavior, I'm probably stuck in FF3.
In anyhow, thanks -- John Linford, Fort Worth

Hi John I have a similar issue in that I programmed my MS Mouse Intellipoint to "Close" so I could close a tab with a click but now it closes the application. I got around it by changing my Intellipoint settings / Program Specific Settings / Firefox / Keystroke (Ctrl + W) Hope this helps, kind regards Harley Storey
Harley, thank you so much. I'll reload FF4 and re-set the settings. John
