Have you tried a different mouse?
Have you tried the mouse in a different USB port.
Is the freeze permanent, i.e. do you need to reboot to fix it, or is it intermittent?

Some things to try:

Update and run all AV & antispyware.

Run defrag.

Assuming that you're running XP. Run System File Checker to restore and repair all Windows files.
Start > Run > Type "sfc /scannow" without the quotes. There's a space before the /.
Click OK.
Have your Windows CD ready to insert if prompted when repair is necessary.

You could reinstall the driver:

Download Mouse or Keyboard Software
www.microsoft.com

These drivers usually work even if the mouse or keyboard is not a Microsoft product. Select a wheel mouse or the nearest description to your device. If it works, then disable the startup items for the original device in msconfig....
