In Windows XP Media Center Edition on my new laptop, when I hover my mouse
over a link or window for a few seconds it either opens up the link (without
me clicking the mouse) or brings the focus of the window to the front. This
is highly annoying but I can't find any documentation on how to turn it off.
My other computer running plain 'ol XP doesn't do this. Anyone know how to
turn it off?

Hello,

Try this:

Start Menu > My Computer > Tools (menu bar) > Folder Options

Under "Click items as follows", ensure your preferred settings are selected.
