Might be a loose connection.  Unplug the transmitter from the PC and plug it back in again.

Perhaps you have accidentally changed a setting.  Go to Start > Control Panel > Mouse and check the settings there.  The settings will vary from Mouse to Mouse and model to model but there should be an option somewhere that says Switch primary and secondary buttons, if that is checked, uncheck it.  But, my guess is that it has to be some setting that you changed.  If you can provide the model name and number of your particular mouse, I might be able to help more.

I sounds like static electricity.\n\nLeave the  mouse, lick the tip of your finger and slowly touch the pointer before it moves, you might get a little shock but you'll get all the energy out of it and it should stop its nonsense.

Your mouse is most likely dirty.  some dust got inside and that is why it acting up.  Just open it up and use a Q- tip with rubbing alchol on it and clean it.  It should work perfect again.

Sound like there is a loose wire in the mouse or your connection is loose buy another mouse they are cheap enough.This is the cord which you move the most and has tiny wires so this is most likely the cause.

Call Ghost Busters!  Seriously though, that happened to me when I was using a hard mouse pad.  Try using a softer one.  It could be that when you are typing that simple action is causing the mouse to move the slightest bit if the pad is a hard one or you are not using a mouse pad at all.

If you are using a ball mouse, you may try cleaning the ball upside down.\n\nIf you are using an optical mouse, try changing the mouse settings in the control panel.

Disconnect & reconnect your mouse & keyboard, you could have knocked the connectors loose (this is almost certainly the problem if you have the sort of keyboard that you plug your mouse into rather than plugging it directly into the computer).

get a usb mouse that will fix it temp.  you might have to call the tech in to get that fixed.  Sounds like that pad has died for the click feature

Make sure that you have admin privleges. It shouldnt matter, but its the only thing I can think of.\n\nYou may want to reload the mouse drivers. Open Control Panel and double click on Mouse. On the hardware tab, select properties, then select troubleshoot. Somewhere in there is a place to reload or update the drivers.

Sounds like either your mouse is faulty or it was static. If it happens regularly when you touch your mouse then it is a fault and you should get a new one. If it hasn't happened since that day then it was probably static.
