Problem description: I know this is weird, but I've experienced this in multiple FPS games on my machine recently, including Call of Juarez Gunslinger and Wolfenstein the New Order. Whenever I press the right mouse button to try to aim down my sights, the camera will all of a sudden be pointing in a completely different and seemingly random direction. The effect is instantaneous. That is, the transition between views takes no frames. The two games even have different engines, so I guess that rules the games themselves out. I can't even understand how to Google the problem. I want to die.

Attempted fixes: Switched mice, although both were wireless Logitechs of different models. Also, I've shut down any background program that would have anything to do with the mouse like KatMouse.

Recent changes: Not that I can tell.

I solved this pretty randomly.

I have VistaSwitcher installed, and there's an option called "Replace the right mouse button + wheel," which I unchecked. Don't know what that option was supposed to do, but it fixed the problem.
