There is a program called Xmouse that comes with the Microsoft Powertoys for W95. It works great on W95, I'm not sure if it works on NT or not. Check the M$ site for powertoys or xmouse and see what they say. Or just download it and give it a try. Also something that may be helpful is the fact that Alt-ESC will force the active window to the back of the stack. I use that a lot when xmouse isn't available.
