[pchelpers] Re: Strange mouse behavior

Did all you guys suggested! Changed the mouse to a known working one. Same 
behavior...works very well with Words and Excel and nothing else. It's the 
scroll wheel that doesn't scroll for me, not the roller ball. The mice work 
well otherwise. They even work when I clicked on the scroll wheel for 
scrolling! That's how I'm scrolling in my browser right now. 

The problem lies elsewhere I suppose. Any suggestions? I can live with it but 
would be interested to know what causes this strange behavior.

By the way, I have scanned thoroughly for viruses, and did an online scan with 
PCPitstop, Trend Micro Housecall, scanned with Spybot S&D and Adaware and have 
Spyware Blaster running. All scans turned out negative! 
What else is wrong??

Thanks for all your suggestions.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
