right-click-drag does think green line?!

Hi

So I have Windows XP tablet edition (for tablet PC, of course), and I have an extremely frustrating problem: whenever I right-click drag, it just draws a thick green line on the desktop, and does not move the icons that I have selected.

The touchpad on the laptop itsel is an Alps pointing device v6.0.302.3. The lappy is Winxp Tablet edition. The lappy is a Toshiba M200, with 656mb RAM. The mouse is a Microsoft Notebook Optical.

This problem happens with the mouse as well, not just the touchpad, suggesting it's a lower-level setting than that (ie, OS-related, not specific hardware model-related).

Left-click-drag works fine. Right-click, no drag works fine. I have checked alla settings both in winXP and the lappy drivers, nothing seems to deal with this.

Help?

No flood of replies, but I worked it out! In case someone else has this problem. The thick green line is a trail for mouse-gestures. If you disable the gesture software (an "S" icon in the try for my Toshiba M200).
