MrSCicero: Can someone please give me a straight up answer?
What is your question? You need a third advice pointing to your mouse? Granted:
Use any corded(!) mouse. Get a budget item in the store of your confidence.
You might tell us which kind of mouse you have... (Batteries of wireless mice are suspects, too)
Next, we'd have to know your software, OS, browser, Flash type and version.
There are a few issues with WGT's program and servers, but the mouse reaction most certainly is not in that category.
