What the hell is happening?

Question

My computer just started freaking out.

The little menu that pops on when you right click the mouse began flashing on and off even though I didn't click it.

The start menu at the bottom came on as well as the all programs part then flashed off then back on over and aver again. The screen was flashing and bouncing up and down.
It ended now but was really freaky.
And my mouse cursor keeps stopping in mid motion.

Any ideas to what is wrong?

I just ran a full system scan and no viruses or anything were reported.

Answer 1

It is most likely the mouse. Turn off your computer and remove your present mouse. Plug in a different mouse. See if that ends the erratic behavior. If so, get a new mouse.

Answer 2

It's your mouse. This means there's now a certain part of your mouse cable is very loose or is very near to being cut off, if you have a laser-based mouse it will also jump places and automatically clicks itself because it gets confused when the physical connection between the motherboard and mouse is lost temporarily.

Answer 3

"You said you ran all your security apps and it's not malware." NOT true. That REALLY means your security apps have been compromised.

Today's malware is so advanced that security tools are detected and disabled before they can be used to remove the "Nasties".

There's only one SURE way to fix it: Re-install Windows.

That's why I'm switching to Linux and OS X!!!

Answer 4

Could be infected, and some anti-virus software don't catch spyware.

Answer 5

Virus?

Answer 6

Shut down the machine.... Leave it down for some time.. and start it up..........

Answer 7

reinstall your windows.
