I am running Windows Xp and the is an annoying mouse feature that
automatically click on a location if the mouse is idle for too long (like
when you're typing). I have searched through the different settings, but
can't for the life of me figure out how to turn this feature off. Any help
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I think you have a noisy mouse. Try another. I've seen this when the mouse
is old and tired (worn out).

Hi,

Try to use other mouse as you mouse may be too old.
If the symptom persists, check for spywares.
