Mouse is not working correctly in VMWare Workstation 6 or 6.5

It's very irritating when your mouse doesn't work in your VM. This simple solution worked for me:

Browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E96F-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

Then remove the value msvmmouf from the UpperFilters Regvalue, then reboot.

Thumbs up for Mat who posted this solution here and gor his idea from this bloke who probably got his inspiration from this Microsoft KB article: KB256233.

As my collegue always says: The solution is always simple...
