Re: Automatic selection of programs - without double clicking

Is this a "wireless" mouse? Suspect interference or damaged hardware.

Dear Vantage,

I did as you suggested and it did help some of the issue, but I still notice, for example, in EXCEL, that if I leave my pointer stationary, it will "click" itself and move the cursor to the cell it is hovering over. Or it will "select" an option in an application or website just by hovering over it.

Is there a way to correct?

With Regards,

Jon

I have just recently noticed that the icons on my desktop are now underlined.

If I hover the mouse over the icon, it will launch the program without a
double-click.

Can anyone tell me how to turn this off?
