slow down the mouse double clicks

[techidave]

I am looking for some kind of software (free) that will slow down the speed of the mouse double click in Win XP Pro SP2.  I have set windows to as slow as it will go  but it is still too fast for my client who has some minor physical handicaps.  He has had this mouse for several months but only recently has this became a problem.  He has the Microsoft Basic Optical Mouse ver 2.0 if this helps any.  It is a USB mouse connected to the PS/2 port with the adaptor ( I think).

When you double click a desktop icon it usually doesn't open.  If you click it one to highlight it and then press enter it works ok.  His problem is he cannot click the mouse twice fast enough to open the program.

I also believe it is using the default MS drivers.

Any ideas on how to solve this dilemna?

TweakUI maybe?

I thought about that one bu didn't have any real experience using it.  Will it slow it down more than Windows will?

Just edited my first post. See comment at the end.

BTW, The default DoubleClickSpeed is 500 (in miliseconds). You may want to ajust the value, but remember to backup the registry first (lower values mean faster speeds).
