Has anyone else had mouse button weirdness?



I am on my 4th repair of my mouse button to my powerbook G4 550 combo.



It keeps developing a tiny spot which over time will grow and spread into a weird rash over the button.



In US terms it creates blotches the size of a dime - in UK terms about the size of an old half penny.



I hardly use the button and use a mouse so it is so strange how prone to rust? it is.

It is like a rust of sorts - the bare metal shows through.



Most odd?



Am I alone in this or anyoen else had similiar problems....at least apple repair it each time!

    It's the chemicals in the kitty litter.

    It could have something to do with any had lotions or etc that you may use? Something might be reacting with the coating on the button.
