looks like you have a trojan (somebody made a backdoor to your comp and hacked your system and he/ she is controlling it) or... your mouse is messed up.

i fully formatted my system drive.reinstalled the windows but still the same problem is occuring.it happens even when i am not connected to internet.last time in previous install of windows,i installed norton antivirus,some folders were created automatically in my c:\ drive and they were hidden.norton antivirus detected a change in bios.it gave me an option to unchange the changes made to bios.and i selected it.i removed the folders which were created automatically.foulders wree named such as FOUND 001,FOUND 002 etc.

then its more likely your mouse. if the same thing happens you will be led to 2 new scenarios.

1) you have screwed up mouse port
2) you have a boot sector virus (very unlikely, especially with that type of problem)
