I bought this a few years ago and it was fine at first, but then
developed a fault in the left button (i.e. it wouldn't click at all). I
took it apart and stared at it in a menacing fashion, put it back
together and it started working until the double-click problem appeared.
So it's definitely a faulty unit.

I have another one which works fine, and recently some relatives also
bought one and have been happy with it.

The preference works exactly the opposite to what I need. You can set a
smaller or larger window for two clicks to be considered a double-click
event. I want it the other way round.
