glibness aside... i had a similar problem with my 1040ST's mouse after
only about 3 months of use... (the ball was clean... i checked all of the
obvious problems).  i blame it on a shoddy design of the electronics
inside that mouse which was stamped "made in taiwan"... i sent it back to
atari and asked for a replacement, and they complied, but this was a 
similar mouse "made in taiwan", and RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX i had the same
problem.  In the meantime, I had ordered a replacement mouse from a
mail order house (send me mail, and I will recommend them to you).
This replacement mouse ($50) was "made in japan", and was of a very
simple design inside.  It has worked fine for the past year or so.
