Hi Ken Thanks :o) OK, if the mouse is on a plan wood grain type service that has indents in it, then the mouse can bounce the signal of the optic so it does appear to bounce around the screen. (or to the top corner). even when you're not using it, but it's still sitting there, it will do that.

Hi Ken If you take the mouse right out of the equation does it still do it? Seeing as its still doing it in a different account then it's either hardware or system wide issue. So makes it a bit easier to track down. When using it on a different service ensure its flat and not white or glass,
