Solve : Uncontrollable scrolling on web pages?

Answer»

Ok this is wierd, but sometimes when I get on a website, the PAGE will scroll up and down erratically. I have EVEN taken my hand off the mouse and watched it do it for sometime.

It doesn't go all the way down and then BACK up, it just jumps up and down. It is strange.

Is this a serious problem? Do i have a virus or something? Are there any solutions?

Pleas HelpAre you using anything for spyware/adware/viruses? You may have ANSWERED your own question.Yeah, I have Norton antivirus and firewall, counterspy, and ad-aware seahol29...... If you are certain you dont have any nasties in residence .........
Do you have another mouse you could try ........ I had a P/S2 mouse do the same thing recently .........a new mouse resolved the issue .
Remember when dealing with computers.......nothing should surprise you anymore.

dl65 I don't have another mouse, i just did a virus and spyware scan and it found nothing. I mean maybe its missing something but is wierd its doing this.
Always have a spare mouse and KEYBOARD (non USB) for emergencies. I would try dl65's advice.Quote

I don't know anything about counterspy, but I run Spybot as well as Ad-Aware. On way more than one occasion Spybot has found issues that Ad-Aware did not.

What OS are you running?

If you are running 2000 or XP you can load the Microsoft Anti-Spyware Beta 1 as well and Ewido anti malware 3.5.

Not saying this is your issue, but this would give you a little more positive backup that you don't have a "nasties" problem.Has this problem been solved? I have a similar problem in applications (Word, Excel, others)I don't know if the ahol's problem ever got solved. Why don't you start a new thread and post all pertinent details about YOUR problem and YOUR system and we can assist you. That ahol is a proven hit & run poster.
I remember his name, don't know why.Must be the 29.
