    first of all,I will be so grateful if you help me:
    I have just bought a new "chic optik mouse" and I am always having problems to find where my mouse is,example;
    i see my mouse at the top of my screen,and suddenly it is going mad and comes back from the bottom,it does it when a program is running or when i am playing a game(counter strike etc..).it goes up without my control,i used "norton2004" and it found nothing,can you tell me what my problem is?is it a virus or any other problem?
    I hope someone can help me,thanx...

    You have placed this in the wrong forum. Hopefully a moderator will notice it and move it to the appropriate location where it could be seen and answered more easily.

    Are you using your optical mouse on a surface which does NOT reflect light ?

    check that there arent any hairs or dust on the lens. My mouse always goes mental when there is a single hair on the lens.

    And check the cord for damage, that could also send confused pointer signals to your computer.

    Mousie mousie

    hey I have a microsoft wireless optical mouse and have this problem ocasionally, it usually happens when playing counterstrike, when i go to my other screen with cs running it will fly over to the other side by itself, I thought i was the batteries but i think it has something to do with the mouse letting u know that cs or the application has loaded or is ready to run.

    -GrimReaper :D
