Windows 7 auto selecting on web pages

[robbbee]

please can someone help me? I am new to windows 7 and I an being driven mad while surfing the net by windows automatically selecting whatever my cursor rests on for a few seconds, the page automatically scrolling up/down, the size of the page changing and other crazy stuff. How can I turn it off or stop it from doing this stuff?

Easy, tools, internet options, advanced, use smooth scrolling. Just check it.

Glad that it worked. The second solution was to adjust mouse setting. Enjoy your Windows 7

Actually, it is still selecting links if I hover over them. What do you suggest I need to do tothe mouse settings? Thanks again for your help.

Go to control panel and go to mouse adjust settings. I think the rest is self explanatory. Sorry that you are still having problems, but gave me a change to use the second piece of information that I had.

If my advice does not solve the problem, start a new thread. I marked this as closed, when you said problem sovled. In fairness to yourself, you will get many more answers, if you post in a new thread.
