Taken it back to the shop, no apparent viruses, and it seems to behave with them as well. I think there could be a virus. I even bought a new mouse with no joy. Anybody had simillar problems?

First time this happened to me, I was positive someone hacked me. Go to your mouse properties and turn off enhancement.

Go to the website of the mouse's company. Download and (re)install the driver. Should fix the problem. The driver would be under something like Support or Downloads.

I'm guessing... you have an optical mouse with a USB connector right?
Either, your optical mouse is dirty,
Or, you are moving your mouse over a different surface on which it can't track very well (did you move anything on your desk when you were installing broadband?)
Or, your broadband modem is interfering with your USB ports. In which case unplugging your modem should fix the mouse problem.

if the mouse is optical try cleaning the eye. When this happens to me there is usually some sort of debris in the eye making the cursor respond erratic.

Well, the common house mouse is quite prone to viruses, like the flu and such and such, Try getting a hamster.
