double-click

Hi all.

I have a generic Logitech USB Optical Mouse (couldn't find a model number) and occasionally when I am doing a single click, it registers as a double click instead.

For example, when I click a file once, it opens it rather than selects it. What could be the source of this problem?

Thanks in advance.
