I have a user with a new 17" iMac running 10.2.4 and IE 5.2.2
when he clicks on the toolbar favorites (both "@" and text) 19
times out of 20 instead of going to the link it opens a contextual
menu as if he was holding down the control button (but pointer is the
standard arrow not the contextual menu) or right mouse clicking on a
microsoft mouse (but has apple mouse)
on both my G4 tower and Powerbook running the same OS & IE versions I
get the same thing happening about 1 in 20 clicks so it is not an
issue for me.
That said with a minor problem like this while 5% failure is
acceptable 95% is not.
I have checked & changed settings for keyboard/mouse repeat/double
click rates, quit/restarted both IE and the whole computer,
unplugged/re-plugged/replaced mouse/keyboard without any effect.
have trashed and re-installed IE - no joy.
Have searched via Google and Microsoft knowledge base for any
documented help on this without joy
Any ideas?
