I posted this in another forum as well. You see I am
having a self impossed annoyance. I have gone to
the "Folder Options" many times and tried to fix this
without any luck. The problem is in the popup or context
menu when I right click on an object. Windows is taking
an action which is not normal.

If for instance you were to open "My Computer" on your
desktop. You would see the C:Drive. If you left click
it, it opens the desination drive and shows the folders
etc... in that drive. If you right click it, the
popup/context menu appears and you get to choose "Open,
Explore, Search...," and a bunch of other choices.

On my machine the top item in that menu is "Search..."
and therefore it is the primary action.
