    .....and if you do buy a new mouse, and it is the wired kind, make sure that it is an optical mouse. Again, no little ball to crud up. Depending on where you get it, $5 to $100, with either Logitech or Microsoft being probably the best brands

    OK Amigos, here is picture of the mouse I am using and have trouble with,
    it has 5 buttons and would like to find one just like it cause I got used
    to it,but I can not find a brand name on it, the other picture is of
    my dell computer as for someone asked how old it was,2 or 3 years old,
    and of course the little cute guy is my little sidekick,or shadow ,he follows
    gramps everywhere,yes everywhere even when I go to the john,
    I did try a couple of things you guys said, but it still didn't fix the problem,
    I lend out the dell mouse so I haven't tried that yet, I'm about ready to throw the sunny beechie ( as my pops would say) away.

    to it with the 5 button set up, got to have that,I looked on ebay
    but came up empty, thanks james..
