Strange incident

Post by AmaD »

This isn't much of an urgent message, though somthing happened t'other night. Someone's name on MSN was 'OMG someone's hacked my account', and they were singing in strangely (In and out constantly). Then soon after I'd blocked him :twisted: My cursor was strangely out of control, and I could only move it in a diagonal line. Has anyone else had this problem before, and I have Norton Anti-virus, Spybot 1.3,Ad-aware and Sygate firewall and i'm comletely clean...

Ok, I use a Microsoft USB Optical Mouse (IntelliPoint). It's blue with a silver stripe around the bottom. (The mousewhee doesn't work for some reason, which If anyone would be willing to help me with, i'll listen) but I don't think that it was a problem with the mouse. However I've a similar problem before whilst playing a game and minimizing it, and my cursor could not go onto the task bar :( - Anyway, thanks for your time :)
