This is driving me insane and I've scowered the web for two days trying to fix this.

I just picked up an Apple Magic Trackpad to be used exclusively on a Windows 7 PC (not apple with bootcamp).

I found a nice driver that got it working right away, but when I'm moving the cursor around the screen, often it will begin "highlighting" text, or picking up and dragging things I don't want it to.

I looked in the "regedit" where people are saying there is binary that can be changed, however the driver I installed doesn't use the binary being suggested.

Can anyone suggest a better driver for my situation or a way to disable the drag lock that is driving me so nuts? I don't mind not being able to lift my finger when dragging, it's a far better compromise than having the insane feature.
