It seriously sounds like you never clean your desk/mouse area, and dust bunnies collect and get into all your mice.

If you have a hair or dust collecting where the optical or laser reading beam is, your mouse will freak out.

I've had a hair get stuck on the laser eye on my G5, and it literally just froze. Nothing I did (moving it slow or fast) did anything on screen. So I picked it up and looked underneath it, and yup, there was a hair just sitting there. Blew it off and it was good as new.

When can I take you from this place?
When is the word but a sigh?
When is death our lone beholder?
When do we walk the final steps?
When can we scream instead of whisper?
When is the new beginning,
And the end of this sad madrigal?
