| | Re: Unable to single click You're correct there. Opening attachments does require a double click. This is by design so that people don't accidently open a potential harmful attachment. If you want to open an attachment you need to double click so WLM knows that you do indeed want to open it and haven't just clicked by accident.

| | Re: Unable to single click Can't you program one of your mouse keys to double click instead of single. I have a Logitech and that's what I did. If I remember correctly though, Windows Mail, Outlook and Outlook Express are the same way. -- ©LarryEș "karl mcgruber" <skywagon 185remove@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:uQV7Mc0PIHA.6060@xxxxxx I'd just like it to work like Microsoft Windows.
