Possessed Mouse

Ok, yesterday afternoon my computer starting acting funny and still is. I
have a Compaq laptop with a Logitech MX310 Optical Mouse. The problem that
is happening is that when I go to click on a button in an Office product or
in IE6 or in anything else, nothing happens until I move my mouse a tad.
Also, if I click once on a Scroll Bar to go down a page, it will go down one
page, but if my cursor is still in the Scroll Bar it will then page down real
fast to the bottom. This is causing me to have to click quick on something
and move off it real fast and this is annoying. My first thought is that I
have FastClick or DoubleClick invading my system. I am running Symantec
Antivirus Corporate Edition here at work (network) and it hasn't found
anything. I have also run the W32.Novarg@mm/W32.Mydoom@mm Removal Tool and
it also didn't find a problem.

Any of your Experts have a clue what is going on? I would greatly
appreciate any thoughts or fixes.

Thanks.....

Have you tried using a different mouse with the laptop? If so, does it
display the same symptoms. I'm inclined to believe that this is a
hardware issue - possibly a malfunctioning mouse.
