My mouse pointer sometimes has a mind of it's own...
I have had a strange occurance show up about once every 7-10 days. I lose control of my mouse pointer, for the most part. It kinda wanders all over the screen, will open windows and icons, will react accelerated when mouse is moved, won't allow left or right clicking. About all I can do is alt-cont-del.
When ever this shows up, I am on plcs.net. Sometimes I have have other windows open, but not always. It only shows up on the main computer that I use. It doesn't happen when I use my wife's fancy Dell.
After rebooting, the problem goes away, until next time. I haven't figured it out. It's been going on for about six months now.
It dawned on me that I am always on plcs.net when it happens, so I thought I would see if it was a conincidence, or if anyone else had the problem.
I AM NOT saying Phil's site infected my computer! But as strange things can show up anywhere, such as on links, and who knows where else.
It could easily be a problem with ths antique computer that I haven't caught on to yet. Whatever the problem is, the firewall and virus checker(s) haven't caught yet.
Anyone had something similar happen or have any thoughts?
