>>I was experiencing strange behavior with my browser! If I moved my cursor it would often jump to a previous page or even a different tab. Often the cursor would freeze. Sometimes (less than 10% of the time) the cursor would come back to life and allow me to continue, but 90% of the time when that happened I had to turn off my computer.

>>I noticed that this behavior of the mouse freezing also occurred when I was in an application so I decided to take action. This is a strange remedy as was the problem but it has cured all issues with the jumping cursor, jumping to previous pages or tabs within a browser or frozen cursor. I decided to replace the mouse and it resolved all of the above issues! I thought that I would let you all know the resolution as the problems were strange and I am happy to have found the solution. Perhaps no one else will have this problem but who knows?

>>At first I thought that the issues were due to my IE Browser. But when I used Firefox the same things would happen. That is when I noticed the problem showing up when using applications.

No, I was using one of my desk top computers.
