1. Since you are able to set the mouse to a certain numerique sensitifity, I presume
you are doing this from the Power Tools "Teak UI" program.
In that program you have only one TAB for the mouse's configuration, and on this TAB
you are able to adjust the "Mouse Menu speed".
Here this speed is set to 3 1/4 (out of 0-10). The sensitifity is set 2 for double click
and 2 for dragging.
Note that there is also your Win95 Mouse settings as configuration in the Control Panel
to be set correctly.
Here this is set on the Buttons TAB to Slow for double clicking and on the Moving TAB
to Slow for the mousepointer speed with the other moving reflection being unabled. 

2. Try un-installing and then re-installing the mouse again, but let Win95
detect it or use the " mouse.inf " file from your mouse manufacturers hardware
install disk.
On forehand, for safety reasons, make notes of the setup configuration given in
"Control Panel" | "Sytem" | "Device Control" and click the device Com port + TABs for
the mouse ports configuration and as device the Mouse's properties TAB itself too.
There might have been a change made as to what type of mouse is to be used
(here "serial", but  -Win95 by itself-  changed this at one stage to "standard" and
this then returned the mouse to give "greenspans irrational behaviour").

3. Also compare the mouse configuration setup(s) in the "Win.ini" and or "Sys.ini" files
with any of your older, previously saved "inis"(all are located in folder "C:\Windows"
with the older version having a "number" instead of "ini" or are named "win.bak"
and "sys.bak").

4. Check out http://support.microsoft.com for articles on + with the mouse as subject

5. And a call made to Cleansweeps makers-manufacturers helpdesk could also salve
this, as a final last resort

General Notes

CleanSweep will not permit you to delete files that are currently in use.

On a network, Windows 95 permits you to attach to and access drives at
any time.  CleanSweep will recognize only those drives to which you were
attached before you start the program.

The network decoy feature will not run if a copy of CleanSweep is
already running.

CleanSweep's Installation Monitor may have difficulty logging the
installation of the Microsoft Plus Pack and other system-level
software that reboots the machine before the installation process
is complete.  Such software does not install itself in the same
way that applications do.  We recommend extra care in uninstalling
these packages.
