Click mouse several times

I use one laptop HP with Windows 7 Pro 64 bit.  Since last week, I had to click on the button on the left of the mouse several times to get a shortcut or an app to start.  He does it with Word, I.E. 10 and shortcuts.  I ran a check full antivirus with Avast Internet 8.0 and it found nothing.  When I did a boot with Avast scan it reported that I had a virus.  Suspecting it was a 'false positive', I also ran a full scan with Malwarebytes and free download of Sophos.  Malwarebytes and Sophos found nothing.  I reported it to Avast, and they told me to run a full scan mode without failure, which found nothing to.  Then I did a scan of long hours many with ODILE - he found nothing.

I also tried to change the batteries in the mouse, but with the same problem.  I don't know what to do next, just that I'm tired of the execution of comprehensive security analyses.  Should I update the driver for the mouse?

Any suggestions will be most welcome!

Thanks, Terry

I suggest picking upward another mouse - borrow one if necessary to confirm that the mouse itself has problems. It seems that the contact for the left button is dirty or defective.

I'm moving your question to the area of the drivers for Windows 7 and hardware sections because it is most certainly not a malicious software.

Regarding the potential virus detected by Avast start-up analysis, I suggest you contact Avast.

  • Use the Click Box several times

    Hi all

    I have seen several posts on very similar topics but I'm looking for advice on my particular problem. I have a slide that contains multiple images. I would like to have the learner click images and an explanation of the image both written and spoken. I finished this ok using the standard box click a speech of fixation to the legend of success on. I would like to provide several opportunities to see the content of the learner. Out of the box, click boxes seem to work only once. I saw a few other messages that refer to advanced actions and the ability to reset the time that the object was used. Can you please direct me to either a lesson on this particular issue, or post a solution here...? I discussed intensively on the internet and found nothing so far. I use 6 Captivate.  Thank you!

    What happened to the button on the left end of the address bar which allow you to see the pages you had been so that you don't have to click the back button several times? You can look at the drop down window of pages and just choose whatever you want. I use it all the time and it is not on FF4. I want to go back to the old FF.

    If you right click on your back button, or click and hold down the mouse button, it will display the list. (I prefer a click-right, because sometimes my fingers slide when I try to click and hold)

  • Sites does not not unless recharge clicked several times

  • By clicking several times for switching Applications and other problems of Click

    I would like to know when it started, because then maybe I could narrow it down. I have actually some problems, but I strongly suspect that they are related. I do not think that this started immediately when I upgraded to El Capitan, but I can't say when it started.

    1. If I Mail to Safari and I click on Safari to bring it forward, nothing happens. If I click a second time, then Safari comes forward. The problem is not limited to these two requests. Maps, Finder, TextEdit and others do, but it doesn't happen in all cases. For example, if I click on a TextEdit window it before now, but if TextEdit is in front, the other application is not until the second click.

    2. If I double-click a file or application in the Finder, it tries to open the point three times. This usually results in two dialog boxes telling me that the application cannot be opened because the third opens.

    3. I have my user folder and disk in my dock to quickly navigate to a specific folder using the grid. However, when I click on an item in the grid, the icon blinks but nothing happens and the view disappears, won't let me choose something or drilling to the location I wanted.

    What I tried

    A different user account - another user account, all right. It tells me that the problem is at my user account level and not at the level of the system. It's good, almost.

    Connection with the elements of wide opening (SHIFT key is pressed) - This resulted in no change in the above problems.

    Watch the Console - I ran the Console to see if all the messages when problems occurred. Zip fastening. Zilch. Nada.

    What I think

    I am sure that this is a problem with an article by third party due to the fact that it happens to other users on the same computer, but since this is not an element of connection, so I'm stumped on how to refine the problem down to find the cause.

    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Okay i ' l jump to... Maybe you're more think it is a little. Have you tried another mouse or trackpad, then a reboot before going too far into other possible problems?
