Default optical mouse fixable?

The expensive optical mouse I used with my WinXP laptop started jumping.
I
detached it and used the touchpad for a while. No more jumping. I then
installed a new optical mouse (same brand, same model), and it seems to
be
fine.

Is there anything I can do to fix the old mouse?

Thank you!

Clean out the lint and hair that's inside the case but in front of the
LED sensor. Use a tweezers and bright light.



Thank you, Vanguard! I thought this kind of mouse didn't collect anything
inside (the opening is tiny), but I'll check it out.
