Hey!

Just a few minutes ago, I noticed my Logitech G9 scroll wheel working very oddly.

No matter how much I spin it, it only moves down a small portion of the page (the scroll bar on the right side moves down maybe 80px, and then it stops). After that, it doesn't scroll down any further, but will scroll up.

I've removed Setpoint completely, and the issue is still occurring. I noticed that if I tilt the scroll wheel to the right (as is possible with the G9) and then scroll, it works perfectly.

This problem occurs with the microgear feature on and off, and it doesn't matter which USB port I use.

Does anyone know what is wrong? Is it simply defective?

Blow it out with canned air - could have something caught in it.

Seems to have fixed it... Weird, considering I can't imagine what could have gotten in there...
