To get rid of this, I usually restart the PC, which fixes the problem.

Im not sure Ive seen a tick box to de/select this option.

Thanks.....John.

Open Control Panel - Mouse-Buttons tab and have a play with these speeds and see if they make a difference. It could even be a button sticking or perhaps the mouse drivers.

Perhaps try another mouse if you have the same problems.
