Question about assigning macros to mouse buttons

[Strabo]

Does anyone know of an app that will let me assign some of the buttons on my mouse (a logitech MX 518) for a macro? I've tried Setpoint, but it slows down my computer and only lets me use one keystroke.

Yeah, most Logitech software really lag computers. They should really optimize them somehow. As for an alternative software that will set macro keys for your mouse, I have not personally used any but here are some suggestions that you might want to try out:
