Mouse problems - mousedown/doubleclick

[Simon Woods]

Hi

using win2k sp4

I'm beginning to notice that with increasing frequency, my mouse down seems
to be having the same effect as if I was double-clicking. I noticed it whe
using VB6 but am now noticing it with IE and other apps.

I read a ng thread which suggested that perhaps this was a known bug which
sp4 introduced. Can anyone confirm and/or perhaps help me get round this?

Thanks

Simon

Did you try a different mouse?

Is it possible that the machine is running so quickly that
you're re-entering the mousedown event before it's lost
focus? I recall, once when using mousedown that I had to
set up a flag to keep from re-entering mousedown...
