Mouse issue

[CertInProgress]

Ok so heres my problem: yesterday i started up my pc and went online to check my mail, everything was fine cursor moved perfectly no straying, i did not open up email from somone i didnt know etc, and now whenever i right click it opens up IE7 and my homepage (every time). This is quite a nusiance for me considering im a "right click" fanatic. I have checked everything to try and fix this, no new updates were installed no spyware/adware/virusesm were found, no corrupt registry files and i even searched the web for this but to no avail. I also tried another (working) mouse and the same thing. my mouse is generaly plugged into my PS/2 port, so i switched to a USB mouse, same issue... any suggestions?
>.< i may never be able to properly right click again.

Do you have any software installed that controls the mouse? There may be a setting that is causing this to happen.

Nope just a regular mouse, no extras, thats what gets me.

Have you tried deleting the mouse from Device Manager & letting the machine re-install the drivers on a reboot? I can't imagine this will help, but you never know.

Great stuff. Sometimes drivers get a little corrupt & removing them & letting Windows re-install them will replace the corrupt files. Glad it worked for you.
