Mar 29, 2006 3:23PM PST

hi
i have the logitech mx518 mouse(has foward and back buttons on side)and i listen to music a lot on my computer whilst doing other tasks. is there a way to use my mouse to control my music without switching task? eg use a hot key like ctrl to activate my mouses media controls. i use mediamonkey. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
