Right mouse click on title bar closes window

[jeff]

This drives me nuts - can someone tell me how to make a title-bar right
click just display a context menu, or even not do anything? I've tried
the generic Windows mouse driver and the Logitech MX700's own driver -
no difference.

WinXP SP2 on generic (Asus/Intel) hardware - USB mouse.

Thanks for any help.

What happens when you right-click the Title Bar?

Have you tried another mouse? Could be a failing mouse. Or, a context menu
extension may have gone bad. Try disabling items with ShellExView v1.10 from

Thanks for the tip, Don. I disabled ALL of the shell extensions,
though, and right clicking the title bar still closes the window. Any
other ideas?

My problem - for anyone interested - was self-inflicted. I use
PowerPro, a fabulous free taskbar and all around utility-on-steroids.
PowerPro has many features, including the ability to define
hotkeys/clicks. For some reason, right-click-om-title-bar was set to...
CLOSE THE WINDOW!
