Mouse Wheel
Does anyone know how to clean the mouse wheel on a modern mouse. Note - I do not mean the mouse ball underneath the mouse. I mean the scroll wheel on top that lets you avoid using the side bar to navigate through a page. My mouse works great, but now the wheel sticks and causes other pages to open without my consent. I'd blame communism, but I'm pretty sure it's the mouse wheel.

Posted by: Andy at February 3, 2006 03:17 PMI never met a mouse with a wheel. How do they carry it? Or do you mean a mouse who was on wheels? This is confusing.
