BIG NEWS: This bug was affecting me (it started all of a sudden one day after months of perfect use with the same mouse). After research on forums, etc., I found TWO people who had reported to solve the problem: One replaced his mouse with a new mouse. The other (post #12 here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1429091&page=2 ) put in an anti-bounce circuit between his mouse and computer. Both of these solutions suggest that it is a hardware issue. Still someone else suggested that the problem does not occur on Windows because Windows actually has "accidental click control" built-in, and so the problem mice are rendered fine by a software block. All of this information is consistent with it being a hardware issue with the mouse, so I replaced my mouse. The problem went away. Conclusion: It is probably a very common hardware issue with mice, and Ubuntu should implement anti- accidental-click software. If anyone else has contradictory evidence (I have seen NONE), please post it!
