Double click speed too fast

Hello, I have never had this problem before so I am not sure if it is a hardware problem or a bug. I searched on the net but couldn't find a problem related to mine. For some reason if I click on something once, it clicks the item twice sometimes. I know about the mouse click settings in CONTROL PANEL > MOUSE > BUTTONS Double click speed. No matter which setting I use it still happens. Is there a way to fix this or does it sound like I need a new mouse?

You kind of answered your own question. If the doubleclick setting has no effect it must be either a defective mouse or a software issue. Software issue can cover alot of ground.
I suggest you try a different mouse on your computer and try your mouse on a different computer. If your mouse works on a different computer try remove all entries for mice in Device manager and rebooting. If you have dedicated software for the mouse try un-installing, rebooting, and re-installing.
