Could be a mouse problem (not tracking movement as smoothly as it once did). If it's an old technology ball-type mouse, the ball housing may have clogged up with dirt and fluff over time. The ball can usually been removed to facilitate cleaning. Inside the recess there are two metal rollers. These need cleaning (don't use liquid) to remove the fluff.

Alternatively you could skip the cleaning and just treat yourself to a new optical mouse which doesn't use a ball and is much smoother anyway (and stays that way).
