I also got the same prbm. The left click works as a right click. Whenever I click
on any icons the context menu opens up and it was very very annoying for me. Then
I searched Google to find out a solution. I thought this will be a strange problem
and but taken aback to see the very same query here.
But to my goodness the prbm is resolved after switching on the Windows update. It
updated something and asked me to restart the windows. After hitting restart, it
normally started up and it gave a message that the malware software has been uninstalled.
Now the mouse is working properly
Thanks,
Naveen
