Mouse Creep (computing)
Mouse 'creep' or mouse 'walk' is a reasonably new information technology term for a computer mouse that displays spontaneous and erratic movement.

Background
The issue rose to attention in December 2012, when Thomas L. Nane purchased a generic computer mouse brand from an online distributor and began to use it with his Dell computer. The wireless mouse had a sensor attached to the rear of the computer tower which was cheaply made and caused the mouse to 'creep' or 'walk' around the page. Mr Nane took the mouse to IT specialist, Lewis Ardian in the hope the issue could be rectified. Unfortunately, Mr Ardian was unable to discover the root cause of this fault and recommended the mouse and it's sensor be discarded.

Resolution
A colleague of Mr Nane discovered the sensor could be placed in any computer tower and the wireless mouse could be moved from a small distance away which would cause erratic movement, regardless of whether a wired mouse was connected. Upon this discovery, it became an office prank where Mr Delaforce became the target of the wireless mouse creep. Mr Delaforce was chosen because he regularly participates in pranks and is a good sport so this fraudulent Wikipedia page is dedicated in his honour.
