Well pretty much everyone who knows me and a few ppl who i've talked to about this problem with know about it to. I think its a problem with my mouse anyways heres the point, my veiw sometimes snaps all the way up or all the way down and just starts spinning out of control and beleive me its hurt me alot more than its helped.

I've pretty much given up on a soloution and im just think im better off buying a new mouse I just wanted to tell everyone about this problem because i've been banned from servers before for this problem i have and i definatlly dont want it happening here.

so.. yeah Anxious

It's probably a driver issue. What type of Mouse do you have ?

Logictec 4 button optical mouse, its a good mouse still pretty new... not even a year. I think its mainly a dust issue, my room is ALWAYS dusty and if i dont clean my tower out every month or so you can pull out fist sized dust bunnies in about 2 months.

Everytime i clean my mouse, the problem doesnt occur again for a random amount of time. Anywhere from its okay for only an hour all the way till 3 months later.

Do you use a solid color mousepad? That might help if it is optical. Also, make sure there's no dust or anything near the lense.

I am with Simpleman, this sounds like a driver or driver conflict problem. I would try uninstalling the drivers, downloading the latest Logitech Drivers and reinstalling them. With a reboot after uninstalling.
