Just a follow-up so the above comments don't discourage anyone from at

I just bought one of these mice (RAT7), and had the same problem. After
a little digging online and with the system, I've tracked down the

The real problem here is that the mouse has a "mode" button that changes
modes by registering a button click WITHOUT SENDING
Pretty sure I'm also getting this problem.
