    Last night I was a bit of an idiot and took some cough medicine (a syrup-like one) whilst using my laptop. As you can guess I accidently dripped some over the right mouse button by my touchpad. I cleaned all the visible stuff off however the button is a bit stiff to use now. After a day it's starting to drive me crazy.

    Is it possible to remove the buttons without wrecking them so that I can clean it? I thought I'd ask and see if anyone knows instead of me diving in and breaking everything. :p
