The mouse is not the problem.
See these.
Right-click is slow or weird behavior caused by context menu handlers
http://windowsxp.mvps.org/slowrightclick.htm
Right click causes an error and crashes Explorer.exe after installing
Windows XP SP2

I tried another mouse to no avail. Device manager reports mouse is
enabled & functioning properly. To recap: right mouse key will close
explorer window except when in safe mode. Otherwise, mouse works as it
should in all other cases.

You cannot access the Internet in Safe Mode. You can access the
internet in Safe Mode w/Networking, but not a good deal. Trying to
access the internet in Safe Mode with Networking is not a very safe
thing to try to do. Your firewall and antivirus software may not work.
See if there are any problems with your mouse in the Device Manager, like
drivers.
Open Device Manager...
Start | Run | Type: devmgmt.msc | Click OK |
Scroll down and click the [+] next to Mice and... |
Double click your mouse

I did update my anti-virus and ran it in safe mode. I had not thought
about running anti-virus in safe mode. A curious thing. I opened
explorer in safe mode and mouse worked perfectly. I rebooted and opened
Explorer in normal Windows and right mouse key closed the window
without being logged on to internet. The problem may not have to do
with logging onto internet. I had not opened explorer without logging
on to internet before. Another note, I have had to go to safe mode to
install a couple of applications. I tried logging onto the internet
from safe mode, but could not. Still have problem but you sure helped
to narrowing it down. --

Do not why logging onto internet would change mouse behavior.
