I wonder if anyone else has ever had this problem, or has some insight. My Logitech G7 laser mouse has recently started acting up by occasionally double-clicking when I only single-click. I'd say it happens about every 20 mouse-clicks or so.
Some details:
The feel I get is that it's software related, not hardware. The mouse button itself doesn't feel "sticky" or "mushy" or anything; when I single-click it it FEELS just like it should.
Once it improperly double-clicks, the double-click functionality remains in place for the next 2 or 3 clicks. For example, you know how if you double-click the blue bar that runs across the top of windows the window will maximize? Well, sometimes I will single-click on the blue bar in order to drag the window to a different part of the screen, but a double-click will apparently register and the window will maximize. Then when I single-click on the blue bar again, the window will resize, as if I had double-clicked again. For the next 1 or 2 single-clicks, a double-click will actually register, then after that the mouse is back to normal and a single-click registers as a single-click.
This problem is driving me nuts! I've tried all the obvious things, like moving the wireless receiver around, resetting it, changing the battery, etc., to no avail. Oh, this problem just started this week, after a year of flawless operation. Any advice?
