Hi there,
I do regular check-ups of my Startup using CCleaner. Its been a few months since last I checked and today I was puzzled about a program called 'MouseDriver' by Pixart Imaging Inc in my Windows Startup. The entry looks very suspicious to me, so I googled it. Some say that its harmless, while others also find it suspicious. Searching 'MouseDriver' in your database, it says its connected to a virus, which got me really scared now.
I have made a file of my Windows Startup:

As you may notice, the MouseDriver stands out in the Windows Startup.
Can you recommend me any actions?
Thanks!
