It is interesting that MS actually tried to move away from the double click paradigm as early as (IIRC) Win 98. Early beta's of 98 had single clicking (web style) behaviours for desktop shortcuts, icons etc. on by default. Eventually they decided (for whatever reason) to do exactly what DarkGuy suggested -- they made it optional and left the default at double click. (And, here we are 10 years or more later talking about the same topic in Gnome...)
