I had been under the impression that you were using Linux proper. Since
you are under Windows, it might be a Cygwin thing, but it could also be
because you have the middle button (wheel) set to some other function
that middle button in the Intellimouse software. There should be a way
to set it to simply middle button, which will make it function as the
middle button for the few Windows apps that can use it and, hopefully,
for Cygwin apps as well.
