    Right now, when I hover my cursor over any icon with my touchpad, it automatially selects it. How do I disable that?

    I don't have my SZ yet, so this will be a bit generic

    Go into the control panel, look for the device, should be mouse, or touchpad, or something similar. Browse thru the menus in the applett and you should find an item that will make sense, uncheck it.
