Heya, xerannyo. Welcome to TSDN!

In the Mouse control panel, check your double-click speed setting.

thanks pbmods, but i don't think this is a mouse setting problem :) it's more of a registry problem regarding opening my local harddrives as it was restricted by the worm that infected my system.

btw... i already solved my problem...i was adviced by a friend to download taga lipa are worm remover (just google it, it's a custom made worm remover) and used its automatic registry fix, and voila! problem solved :) thanks guys!

i wish that theres an antivirus out there that fixes your registry automatically after deleting the virus/worm :)
