Optical mice require very little cleaning. Personally I clean mine once every couple of months simply by wiping the top and bottom surface with a wet cleaning cloth.
I actually clean my mouse pad much more often since that's where I get some dirt accumulation that cause resistance in moving the mouse.

Yep, just not as often by far.
The scroll wheel may need to be cleaned of gunk if you use it a lot.
The seam along the side.
The bottom of it will pick up stuff over time.
The indent where the LED is may get hair and stuff in there.
Compared to keyboards and old ball mice... the optical mouse is practically maintenance free.

If your computer is not working properly when it is switched on, it could be a problem with device drivers, hardware or software.

Sure it does. Try wiping it down with alcohol.
