Whats the best way to clean out under the scroll wheel for the IE 3.0?

If you've ever had it im sure you all know
how the scroll wheel tends to get dirty and starts
to stick & track slowwwwwly like a wheelchair in rocks.

anyone have a good method on cleaning it
without going dr. 90210 on it and taking it apart?

Call microsoft, tell them you broke it, make something up and they'll send you a new CLEAN one without you having to send in your working one.

They still make IE 3.0s and they will give it to you usually without asking for warrenty. It's weird. Worked for me last time.

to open the mouse you have to tear off its feet to get to the screws, as well as break the seal (nulling your warranty).

so all in all, either go through microsoft, buy a new mouse, or keep using your dirty one.
