Half way there - Thanks Val - Opening folders is fixed, like you said, it was
simply changing from a double click to a single clik w/in Folders. Not sure
why a double-click would require a menu open, but when I changed it to a
single click, life was restored to NORMAL. (BTW- touchpad was already set to
fast click)
However, w/in MSN Mail, I cannot click an email & have it open; I must still
right click and select open. I have also been through the settings there (3
times and find nothing to make it different)
