A couple of alternatives before buying a new mouse.
*1 Try an old fashioned Tethered ball mouse... and one that you know
works....
*2 Clean the mouse inside (which may invovle unscrewing it)
*3 Reinstall Windows.
BTW.. For Wireless Optical Mouse designers... how about an ON/OFF
switch please to save battery life!
Surely you don't mean that. A software auto-on (immediately when movement
sensed) and auto off (after a certain period of inactivity) is far
superior.

Hello folks:
I have a Microsoft Standard wireless Optical Mouse. The problem is
that it right clicks by itself and if you hoover over an item, it
will open that item by itself sometimes.
I have updated the driver for it using Microsoft Software, and I
have new batteries but the problem persists.
I really hate to have to buy a new mouse so does anyone have any
ideas on what I can do to solve this problem?
Any ideas are appreciated...
