    Hey,
    I've keep getting asked how to fix this strange behavior in WinXP Pro and Home by both my Wife and Dad. It seems when they hover over a button it auto clicks it? I've gone into control panel - mouse and checked all the settings but it keeps doing it on both their computers. Anybody know how to fix this and make it stick?

    Thanks
    Rockit

    Have you checked in WE - Tools > Folder Options > General tab - 'Single click to open an item (point to select)' - a long shot!!

    Thanks Pete,
    I didn't think of that .. I'll give it a try the next time I'm summoned and post back on the outcome.

    Happy Holiday's

    I think it is a very long shot, but worth checking!

    Happy Holidays to you, too!
