It could be one of two things: Like you said, it could be your mouse or your computer. First thing I'd do is check to see that you've got the right drivers loaded for your particular mouse. Did your mouse (I'll assume it's a wireless mouse since you mentioned batteries) come with an install disk? If so, try re-running the install program and see if that works. If not, check on the manufacturer's web site to see if you can download any updated drivers. That's the computer side of it.
If it's the mouse then try swapping batteries one more time with ones you know are good. If that doesn't work then you may possibly have a bad mouse or receiver. I'm assuming you purchased a wireless mouse/keyboard set. If you kept the receipt then return them for exchange or a compmarable model.
Wish my fixit-wand was working for you. :)
That's my $.02 worth. Hope it helps! :)

clicking on a link on the internet doesn't always respond quickly you some times have to wait for the site to respond in the case of yahoo it's a busy site so you sometimes get a delay
if you're getting the same problem opening programs on your computer it's either the mouse is faulty or your computer is running slow and it takes time to respond

if you can move the cursor normally, but just the button isn't working, obviously not the signal is the problem.If you have the mouse for a long time, it might be a sign of usage.
but don't worry...mouse is the most cheap part of a pc :)

The button contact is probably worn out, misaligned, or plain bad.
Get another mouse, they are relatively inexpensive, and this problem is not worth your time and efoort, not to mention frustration.

So, it is a problem with connection. These mouse are good for nothing.

i think you should get another mouse instead of solving out the problem of the present mouse.this will be the best selection.

Do you have drivers for your mouse? Did a users guide come with it.

I take it it is a wireless? Are you sure there is nothing obstructing the path? Have you tried cleaning it?

Maybe the button is worn out.
