Spaceball License

My Spaceball drivers would stop after a few seconds.
I could start the driver, use the Spaceball, then itwouldquit.

I tried a different Spaceball, new drivers, old drivers,Serial toUSB adapter (I use a serial 4000).
Nothing kept it going.

Then it dawned on me - I ignored the 3Dconnexion webpagethatpopped up after installing the newest drivers last month.
I had ignored it this time too.
So I installed the newest drivers again, filled out that userpageand everything is happy now.
