mouse not working after 4/8/08 update

i have a dell 2 button mouse plugged into a USB port. it no longer works
after the vista 4/8/08 update.
i contacted dell and their great solution was to rebuild my system which i
refused to do. after restarting my system and pressing the F8 key i was
able to get into a safe mode which allowed me to go into safe mode and i as
able to restore to the previous configuration. this fixed the problem at
the time, but the next morning it reloaded the upgrade again and i had to do
the same procedure all over again. i contacted dell again and was told that
so far i was the only user with this problem and that i needed to notify
microsoft so that they could fix the problem in the next upgrade. i did
notify microsoft and they referred me to this discussion group and were not
aware of this problem. i am pullling my hair out trying to figure this out.
I have turned my automatic updates off since Dell told me it would take
Microsoft that long to realize and fix this problem. I contacted Microsoft
and they referred me to this discussion group.

Is there anyone out there that could help me with a solution to this problem?

I'm having this problem too...
Mouse worked fine before latest update.
It's more than just the mouse, the computer becomes unresponsive for a few
seconds.

I re-installed windows thinking it was something that could be corrected.
Mouse worked fine until I got the latest updates from Microsoft website.

I've run my Spyware, and Antivirus, but nothing is there to cause this
problem.

Of course Windows won't let me do a system restore (don't ask me why).

Funny how these things work (or don't work)...

System:
Windows XP (latest service packs and updates)
Logitech Dual Optical Mouse
(I don't know the other stuff)

It would be nice if Windows would just work...
