Mouse clicks not registering

When I tried playing this evening, I found that my mouse clicks weren't registering correctly. Starting from the login screen, it seemed like I had to click on any given button twice for the game to read it as clicked. Power buttons usually needed to be clicked twice, and sometimes dragged instead of clicking. Worst of all were the boxes. I tried scrolling in the chatbox, and instead of the scroll button moving, the entire box moved. But I can't drag it back into place, because the game doesn't really recognize the mouse button as being held down (though there's enough change in appearance that it seems to be registering something). The game worked fine when I last played-two days ago.

And I checked my mouse-it works fine everywhere else.

Any thoughts about what might be going on or if it's fixable? The game is close to unplayable right now.

I've had similar issues..restarting the game has fixed it for me....

I do have to lock my buttons in the powers tray, though, as they tend to drag rather click.

Thanks for the advice.

I've tried logging in a couple more times; looks like the problem is still there. I tried playing on a lowbie, and there were short periods when it worked normally, but then went back to causing a problem. I should note that buttons highlight or otherwise register that they've been clicked the first time- they just don't have any meaningful effect.

I have no third-party mouse drivers or software. I'm not aware of changing anything between Saturday and Monday to cause the problem.

Problem solved. A restart of the computer eliminated the problem completely. Thanks again for the advice, everyone.
