There is another interesting one there - which is just as crucial, or
perhaps even more so, and effective --
http://www.wiebetech.com/products/MouseJiggler.php
Interestingly enough - there is already enough counter measure/detection

identify diferently (e.g. as a graphpad) as to voil simple 'count the # of
mouse counts'
