My mouse pointer behaves erractically. While I'm working, the pointer will move and my screen will lock up. Sometimes the point will change shapes and make the screen scroll up or down randomly. I've plugged in different brands of mice and even tried using the touchpad on my laptop, but the problem perists. What's wrong with my mouse and how can I fix it.

From what you describe, it might be a computer virus and nothing with the mouse since you have tried other mice and it does the same thing.
If you do not have updated anti-virus go to:
http://www.avast.com
or
http://www.my-etrust.com/microsoft/
for free anti-virus. The only other thing I can think of is if your windows installation is corrupt or spyware, either way you need backup your data, format your computer, and reinstall.

What shapes does it change too? Does the hard drive thrash (work continuously)? If so, you need more memory. It could also be a device conflict with another device (keyboard, handy-cam, whatever)
