Joined Feb 17, Messages Hi Guys, A virus or trojan disable my mouse. How to make my mouse work again or temporary how to use keyboard as mouse? I use WinXP Thank you. Joined Sep 29, Messages I have to unplug and plug back in the usb mouse to keep it working.

I clicked on this group and was reading something that it said, and I don't know if my cursor was on the adverts at the time, but it clicked on it without me doing anything 3 times If you want to know what advert it was, it was Become A Photographer and then clicked look at more ads.

I think I might have a virus. And when ever it is near something, it clicks on it. I've tried what someone said saying try Fn and Num Lock. That only worked for like, 20 seconds. I scanned it with Norton Internet Security , which found 52 cookies but resolved them. After they scanned it took 3 hours!! I don't know what I did I just disabled it because this stupid group said if you want to find out the answer to this, blah blah blah.

Then they said post it to your wall, and to do that you needed to disable pop up blocker for Facebook. I did so, but I forgot to put it back on again.

I'm so I really am actually! Try a different mouse. If the problem goes away, replace the defective mouse. I the problem persists, read on. Do you know when this problem began? Be sure to check the box to show more than 5 days of restore points. If the first attempt fails, then try an earlier point or two.

NOTE: You will have to re-install any software and updates you installed between now and the restore point, but you can use Windows Update for the updates. The actions seemed deliberate and not as if it was just random movements caused by hardware error. Concerned that someone maybe watching me through my laptop camera, I covered up the lens and then the mouse cursor stopped moving.

I cannot paste into the website. I have tried right clicking and selecting paste, but it did not work. I tried using the paste button in the toolbar, but still nothing.

I tried pasting into a blank notepad file and that worked, so the text is definitely on the clipboard. Posted 23 November - PM. Hi, chris, I will be handling your log to help you get cleaned up. Please give me some time to look it over and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Can you tell me what's the current status of the machine? The question is: is there a virus that can disable a mouse or shall I look for something else as the culprit?

And when you say 'disable' exactly what does that mean? Page 1 of 2 - Absurdly malicious mouse cursor trojan. USB mouse if the mouse still appears there when it supposedly becomes disabled. I think my friends computer just contracted a virus.

Not so with RATs. Win 10 V. After opening this file your mouse will be disabled. We've been hard at work on the new YouTube, and it's better than ever.
