I met with the same problem on my Ubuntu 13.04 laptop. I'd like to post
a partial/possible solution here in case that someone want to try.
Here is the problem.
Inside Google Chrome, sometimes when you right click (for only once) on a
web page, it will behave like you double right clicked and as a result it
navigate back. (`Back` is the first menu item on the context menu).
When does the problem occur.
It happens that the problem does not occur with Ubuntu 13.04's built-in
themes: Ambiance, Highconstrast, Radiance. When I installed and activated
third-party themes like Uncomplicated, Flatsutdio, Mediterraneanlight, etc the
problem does occur.
The possible cause of the problem.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=591258
The solution.
After hours search and research, I found why the built-in themes won't be
affected. In these themes, a little padding is added to the top of menus. When
you right click on the padding, it won't activate the first menu item. That's
it. So we can add that to other theme by simply adding (or modifying) GtkMenu
::vertical-padding = 3 to <PathOfTheTheme>/gtk-2.0/gtkrc, under `style
"default"` section. You could refer to /usr/share/themes/Ambiance/gtk-2.0/gtkrc.
Hope it helps.

What I expected was: Single Click.
What happens: Mouse double clicks.
This bug applies to the base operating system and all software
installed on my system.
Randomly the mouse responds with two mouse clicks when I click only
once. Witch turns my system unusable: I try to close a windows, and
the system closes that windows, and the one below. I try to right
click something and the system right clicks and executes one of the
menu options.. Etc.. Etc...
When this problem happens during some time, then it disappears, then
It comes back. The behaviour of the bug seems perfectly random to me.
It is more frequent with the right button, than with the left one.
Plus, this isn't an hardware fault because it doesn't happen in other
operating systems.
This is the 'xev' command output where you can see the erratic behaviour of
the mouse. I single clicked two times, one of them was recorded by 'xev' as a
single click, the second one was recorded as a double click.
