Connecting wireless mouse w/ USB

[MasonOrange]

I'm a new linux netbook user (Dell Mini) and I find the touchpad to be a little frustrating. I have a Targus mouse with a USB and can't for the life of me figure out how to set the thing up. Can anyone help?

Here is a goggle look up I think it's do-able but this may be not a common device on the forums.
