Single click not working

Anonymous

I'm using an HP 1280t, Intel core i7, 3.62GHz, 10gb mem, 1 TB hdd.

I'm using the single click option on my mouse, but in the last few days, the single click doesn't always work. Sometimes, it takes 2-5 left clicks to do anything. Makes no difference if I'm working off-line or on[-line.

 I've done 2 restores - no help.

Any ideas what might be causing this?

Any help appreciated.

    (When was the last time you checked your system for any malware?)

    ^v^

    Scan your computer now online and clean it for free!

    Run the Microsoft Safety Scanner

       <<http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/SysReq.aspx>>

    Sometimes you have to try twice to click in the links, other wise you can get the “We aяe sorry, the page you requəsted cannot be found.”

    A very good antimalware app are SUPERAntiSpyware (SAS) and

    MalwareBytes Anti-Malware (MBAM).
