Mouse click acting as two!

When I click once on an item or such, it often reacts as if I have clicked twice.

Its not all the time, mainly at merch. Scary since just clicking once on an item can lead to it being sold!



Short request, is this a bug or just perhaps a equipment related issue?

Equipment. My wireless mouse is doing that nowadays, I think because it's pushing two years old. I find hitting the mouse like a television, opening up the battery compartment and blowing the circuitry like an NES game, as well as charging the batteries fully seems to help.

Using an older mouse? I googled the problem a while ago and it had to do with the mechanics in the mouse itself.

I dunno, just found this.

How old is the mouse? What make is it? ANY Microsoft Mouse I have had, or any cheaper mice I have had, the left button has started dieing after 3/4 months, it starts by SOMETIMES double clicking items..

now, the question is, does it do it in windows?

I had this problem before... eventually the mouse began continually scrolling down so I couldn't do anything with most webpages... so I smashed the mouse and got a new one, problem solved.

Yup, had this happen twice before only a new mouse fixed it.

If it always happens, I think there's a toggle in the options menu that enables or disables mous clicks acting as double click. If it only happens occasionally, yeah sounds like mouse problems.
