Misbehaving Mouse

Not a major issue but darn annoying. My mouse has recently become rabid. And I've noticed that sometimes when I click once, the computer performs as if I had double clicked.

I can't highlight words. I click and drag the sentence I want to copy and when I release my mouse the sentence doesn't remain highlighted or only partially highlighted.

When I click on the back button to Firefox it takes me 2 pages back. Not the previous page but the previous previous page. If I click for one emoticon I get two. It's causing a host of minor problems in other programs as well.

Is this a mouse driver problem or should I just retire this rebellious rodent?
