Can someone please settle a long held debate amongst myself and my friends/colleagues? If you are talking about more than one computer mouse, are they mice, or mouses? I know "mouses" isn't a real word, but surely it can't be mice... Can it??

I say mice.

LOL that question is getting is as bad as what came first the chicken or the egg. I have no idea I guess I would go with mice...

Logic and a basic grasp of the english language would suggest that... but computer mice?? Just sounds wrong man!!

Have you seen the size of those things lately? A wheel by your thumb, a wheel by your index finger, a dozen buttons nearly for every finger and then some, pads, rests, etc... I vote for "rats".

EDIT: My point is that due to increased size of this pointing device we should officially start calling it a RAT which would make many of them RATS :)

YES! I love it! As of now, I will start calling them RATS, thus forever ending my long, albeit amusing arguments with friends! (sidebar, I will not pass this idea off as my own though, credit where credit is due) Bless your cotton socks!

Well, Jinx the cat (the old cartoon character) always said, about more than one mouse, "I hate meeces to pieces." Seriously, I think the term mouse applies to one or two or three. Have not heard computer mice yet, but then I have not been in the work office lately either. Rats sounds rather appropriate too! Good luck in the debate.

Every time I open my computer, I'm getting the following error message:

Windows cannot find RVHost.exe,make sure you typed the name correctly...

Most likely it is a virus! Could you please advise on how to remove it?
