I wish I knew how to bypass that too, so if you find out, please post the answer back here.
On the other hand, if you have not already noticed, if the Tbolt is up and running and plugged in the serial port when the computer boots, your mouse will appear possessed. It is a Windows "feature" where the OS thinks the Tbolt is a serial mouse, and it is converting the data stream into mouse movements. And no, it does not work like a navigation system :-) Doing a Google search led me to the settings that have to be changed in Windows to disable this "feature". I forgot the exact steps now (Control Panel -> Hardware Manager -> disable Serial Mouse driver).
