Hi all,
My mouse keeps activating what ever it rolls over without
me clicking, ie. it will activate an in active window by
simply moving the pointer over it. Can't find anything in
accessibility options that resembles this.

This is driving me MAD!! Please help.

It sounds like you have the "activation follows mouse" setting enabled.

Do you have Tweak UI installed? (If not, install it from:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/downloads/powertoys.asp)

Open TweakUI, and navigate to Mouse \ X-Mouse. Uncheck "Activation follows
mouse"
