"Hovering" in Windows XP

Where do you adjust "hovering," i.e. when I move the pointer over a link
it just continues to go there to the link w/o me clicking in order to go
there ;-(. It can become a real nuisance while using the 'touchpad.'

Start, Control Panel, Printers and other Hardware, Mouse.

Well, it will depend on your particular hardware. Mine has a Synaptics
Pointing Device. On the Mouse Properties screen select Device Settings,
then click on the Settings button, Sensitivity is at the bottom of the list
there and will affect the hovering. If you have a different device you will
have to search around for what is there.
