Software that displays how many WM_MOUSEMOVE messages an application can receive per second.
Normally it’s around 127, but if you tweak the USB driver’s polling frequency (Hz), it goes up accordingly: about 127 at 120Hz and about 507 at 500Hz. I have no idea why it comes out +7 above the Hz value (there doesn’t seem to be a bug in the program, but it’s a mystery).
No screenshots from the time survive. The image above is the About dialog reconstructed from the dialog definitions embedded in the distributed exe. The main window simply drew the received-rate number directly onto the window, and since no screen definition remains in the resources, it has not been reconstructed.
