Suddenly my mouse began to behave in a very strange way: it doesn't draw strait lines as it used to do before whenever I moved the mouse more or less straightly, and also the cursor began to move by itself when the mouse remains immovable. Is it a virus? What should I do?


Important Addition:

It's an optical mouse

Have you tired swapping out the mouse for a known good one?
If this solves the problem then the best solution might be to buy a new mouse.

Make sure that there is no dust or particles inside the optical hole under your mouse.

Are there any bluetooth adapters plugged in? Those could be receiving bluetooth signals from a nearby device.
