i use a USB mouse on my laptop, but lately i keep getting a box popping up
called autoplay, and shows a flashlight scanning, does it for about 2 secs
then stops, the problem is it does it over and over, and while im in another
program it will alt-tab that program while its going on, is there anyway to
keep this from happening cause it is happening quite frequently, i though by
buyng a new mouse perhaps it was the contacts not meeting, but it is doing
with the new mouse even. Please help, this is becomming a night mare when
trying to do things on the computer. thanks and sorry ahead of time for what
most likely is a dumb question.

Take care

Autoplay has nothing to do with your mouse. It is related to your cd/dvd
drive. Is there a disk in the drive? If so, remove it. If there is no disk in
the drive, your drive might be failing. Run your system diagnostics. Your
antivirus might be causing this, too. Disable removable drive protection from
your AV program. In other words, tell your antivirus not to check files on
the cd drives.
