ruffle my feathers too
Have you uninstalled the device driver , shut down the comp and unplug all usb devices and rebooting ?
Every once and awhile my mouse ( I'm using a pc without a touch screen or touch pad) when scrolling will all of a sudden change the zoom. I go between google chrome and IE and it happens on both. If it goes on enough then it starts to open up new tabs for every link I click on instead of just opening the new link in the same tab. I have tried to tweaking my mouse settings and that does not work. I have tried restarting my computer as sometimes that will work. how do I get this to stop as it is very annoying!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks.
