I have nothing selected in Tweak UI's XMouse section and am using double
click settings in Folder Options. I'm not seeing the same issues that you
are.

Remaining explanations that I can think of would be a stuck mouse button -
try a different mouse.

Or another bit of software controlling the mouse or other input device
connected to the system. "Another bit of software" would be any settings or
control panel applets above and beyond the basic settings that Windows
provided. Logitech's MouseWare (and I forget the name of their new one) or
a control panel icon for a touchpad.

I have a graphics tablet attached to my desktop. If the pen is too close to
its surface, I get crosstalk interfering with the mouse input. To resolve,
I keep the pen in its stand, far away from the tablet when not in use.

That's all I can think of at the moment.
