X-MOUSE problem

Locked

Activation Follows Mouse is another name.
My problem is when I boot my machine this feature gets activated. How do I prevent this from happening?

I have set HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop AtiveWindowTracking in the registry to 0.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\UserPreferencesMask, I have set bit 0 to 0.
i.e bf,1e,00,80 I set bf to be.

Silly Question:

How was it turned on in the first place ie did you use tweakui if so could you turn it off using that or reload and turn it off.

Yes, tweakUI turns it off, but when I reboot X-mouse is turned back on. Remember, the only SILLY/DUMB question is the question that is NOT asked.

I found the solution to this problem.
It must of happened when I was running Visual C++ 6.0. I turned X-Mouse on while this program was running.

I had X-Mouse turned off with Tweak-UI. Later when I ran Visual C++, X-Mouse turned on again. I then turned off X-Mouse with Tweak-UI and X-Mouse has not turned on since.
