It started here many years ago, no idea where it went since, but after getting curious I have finally found the original creator of the Wormouse project that started so long ago (shortly after Worms 3D was released and that awesome mouse was introduced).

I personally have used his mouse since it was released on every personal system and it still throws visitors for a loop when they see it or try to use my mouse.

I have been using version .23 for ages but .25 is his last release since 04. Either way if anyone enjoys this little blast from the past, please sign his guestbook and let him know you appreciate his work.

The only warning may be that some virus scanners may see the word "worm" and call for a false positive, so just be warned.

I don't see a problem.
Nice tool. The movement is sadly a bit shaky.

Curious, It is solid as a rock on every system I have used it on. By Shaky do you mean it rotates a little when left alone or something?

No but the rotation is not very smooth sometimes, it's a bit "shaky" (I don't know how to describe it better) if I move the mouse slower, even though I set 512 rotation images.

Can't, standard user, and don't have pass for the admin account. I can always get it off another computer though and transfer it.

Yeah, sometimes the administrator password is just empty, that's what you should try. Shift+Right click any program, Run as other user, "Administrator" no pass and OK :P
