Oh, that is not strange at all, because my mouse can work without batteries if it is connected by wire with receiver, the batteries are nedeed only when I take off the wire. I forgot that 🙂

Problem should be something else

Man, that makes no sense at all. Without power source, the optic should not operate. You may have some sort of internal virus, or does someone have a laplink with your computer? If so, they can operate your computer from their screen. If you have not authorized one, you may have had one foisted upon you via a trojan horse. Just a thought.

How someone can operate it while I am offline? And look my post above yours about batteries in mouse. That problem is solved. When I take the power off from the mouse, nothing moves anymore

It is actually quite easy. I do it every day. I can remotely connect with my office computer and run it from my home computer, just as if I were at my office. I also simultaneously disable the keyboard at the office so no one ther could possibly interfere with what I am doing. There are several sites that offer it. Also when you contact Microsoft or Norton or McAfee, they all have the ability to talke over your unit and work on it if you authorize them to do so. But in the same fashion that they can gain control, so could a trojan horse. Just a shot.

Doing a virus scan is practically useless if you haven't been getting updates.

Try an online scan at Panda or Trendmicro or somewhere.


Have you tried with a different mouse?
