Mouse stops working randomly

I have a Windows XP PC, the mouse will work fine for sometime then it just freezes. The optical light is still on but no response on the screen. I have tried removing and reinstalling drivers. I have tried different mice such as logitech and microsoft models and they all have the problem on this PC, the mice work fine on other PC's. I have also uninstalled Logitech setpoint and Microsoft Intellipoint 7.1 software to see if that helps.

I thin uninstalling the Logitech setpoint and Microsoft intellipoint software may have fixed the problem as the software might have been conflicting with each other.

I found this tip here
When mouse is not working, try alt+tab few times. Not sure what the problem is but it activates the mouse again. FYI, I am using XP.
