    Hello,

    My IBM X31 started having problems with the mouse functionality last week. I noticed that whenever I have a field for text entrance (such as a facebook chat or the box I'm typing in right now) my mouse would stop clicking properly and it is really hard to get it back to work. I have to either press it really hard and in combination with the scroll button and right button which fixes it but only for a few seconds or close the program the text box is in. I have the same problem when I use Word 2003 as well. Any other time the mouse works flawlessly. Does anybody know why this is happening and if it is a software or hardware problem? Thanks :)
