Sometimes when I click on an application in the taskbar; the system jumps to
another usually to the left.

Example: if I click on I.E. it might jump to Outlook instead.

Why? What is the fix?

Sound like your mouse acceleration rate is too high


Copy and paste the text below to mousefix.reg

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Mouse]
"SmoothMouseXCurve"=hex:00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,a0,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,40
,\
01,00,00,00,00,00,00,80,02,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,05,00,00,00,00,00
"SmoothMouseYCurve"=hex:00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,66,a6,02,00,00,00,00,00,cd,4c

Is that better than changing the Mouse settings in the Control panel?
