If the mouse worked OK but suddensly started to behave erratic it has nothing to do with software. I had the same problem several times, and it always came down to dust and cat/hair inside the mouse and/or in the led/openings on the underside. A little maintenace every now and then is a must also on the computer hardware. You clean your car sometimes, right?

I had this same problem for weeks.
Then my 18-year old son walked in and told me that my mouse pad was too colorful. An optical mouse reacts to the colors on the mouse pad.
I changed the mouse pad to an all-blue mouse pad and the problem was instantly gone.

Thanks everyone for your suggestions but kflatter was right. I hadn't even remembered that I have a new desk, that's when the problem started. I put the mouse on a blank piece of paper and it worked like a charm. I would have never guessed.
Thanks kflatter and thank your son too.
