The problem is with the microswitch in the mouse. What it needs is lubricating and the problem disappears. What you should do is take the mouse back to your dealer and have them either replace it or fix it.(I don't know if your warranty will be voided if you do the repairs yourself; that's something you will have to decide.) Hope this helps all you netters out there! mouse ------------------------------------------------------ The opinions cited above are mine and nobody else's! ------------------------------------------------------ \
