Mouse problem and desktop changes

When left clicking my mac mouse (wired) my desktop changes to widgetwindow and vice versa. This problem suddenly started by itself.

Pointing and clicking as should be no longer possible.


My trackpad works fine though.

Anyone can help me out on this?

mac pro, Mac OS X (10.5.6), nope

Your mouse settings may have been inadvertently changed. Take a look at the article "Troubleshooting Mighty Mouse and determining expected behavior" for some tips about the features of the Mighty Mouse. I have attached a picture of what the default setting typically are:
