Download of the Day: Volumouse

Windows only: Volumouse transforms your scroll wheel into a volume dial.

I listen to music all day long and it's a pain in the patoot to open up my volume control; it takes time and it's inconvenient. Volumouse allows you to set rules for your scroll wheel - you can customize it to turn your volume up or down via the Volumouse control panel.

I set mine for whenever I point to the taskbar. One scroll up or down, and I'm all done. When you're not within your specific control area (you've got a variety to choose from; taskbar, alt key, shift key, etc.), your mouse scroll function is not affected. Volumouse is a free download, Windows only. — Wendy Boswell
