Optical mice relay on the surface you use them on. On some surfaces the optical light will get "confused" and start to move in random directions. Try another surface or get a good mousepad.
A optical mouse is way better then a ball-mouse when a optical mouse is put on a good surface and nothing is interfereing with it. It feels much lighter and moves smoother. A laser mouse is even better, but i never used one so far.
