    I've got a new R61 that I'm so far pretty happy with. However, when I'm browsing through a set of Google results, say, when I mouse over a link, the computer automatically selects it after a second or so. Does anyone know how to turn that off? I saw a thread on it over in the Sony forum that suggested going into folder options, but that didn't do the trick. Thanks in advance!

    Have you looked at your accessibility, internet options (advanced tab), and mouse settings in control panel?

    I think turning off tapping under mouse options did it. Thanks!
