This usually has nothing to do with the mouse itself but can be caused by software (too many programs/processes running in the background) or hardware problems. There is no way for us to know which it is with so little information provided. For general software troubleshooting, start by making sure the computer is virus/malware-free:http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_MalwareTo make sure the hardware is sound:http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Hardware_TshootIf you need further help, please provide more information about your computer and its recent history as well as the results of the above troubleshooting.

I have the same problem as clearly explained above. Depending on what I am doing from program to program the mouse may freeze in 5 min or 2 hrs or 6 hours. I tried to check the malware and hardware at the links above but the pages do not open up.I have gone into Safe Mode and for the few prograns I tried I did not have a problem. The first time I recall having the problem was after updating MS Messenger (not to long ago) one version back from the current updatealthough that may have nothing to with it. I have full system back ups from a month ago when I did not have the problem and could restore some files if I knew what to restore.PLEASE HELP
