Go to Control Panel, hit Mouse and choose "Pointer Options". Make sure "Snap
to Box" is not checked. Keep cheese away from mouse.

That is a mighty good reason, as well as a (pussy)cat being around bg.

If this is a 'wired' mouse, try holding the mouse still and move its' little
tail.....if you get movement of the pointer, go buy another mouse, its' tail
is bad and they are cheap. Also, make sure it is plugged securely into the
cpu. If it is not an optical mouse, the kind that has a ball, remove the
retaining ring by turning it counter clockwise, remove the ball and clean
the rollers with a Q-tip and alcohol.

Heirloom, old and my money is on a bad tail
