Can't left click through the Pages or Notebooks

As a tech support worker at my company, I am having the same problem. All of
our One Note 2007 users with Vista-installed XT tablets are having this
issue, currently two users so far. Waiting patiently for a fix.

Hi all,

I have an update on this issue. It appears that the NTrig applet
installed on some of the Dell XT tablets is incorrectly setting some
values in the registry. The result is that whenever you click on a
control that is both clickable and draggable (such as the page tabs in
OneNote) it will always be treated as a drag.

Here are the steps you can take to fix this.
!!!WARNING!!!
These steps us the Windows registry editor. Use caution when using the
registry editor - a mistake could cause serious errors on your computer.
If you do not feel comfortable with the registry editor, please ask
someone for help.
!!!WARNING!!!
1. Click Start, Run, type regedit, and click ok (acknowledge the Vista
UAC prompt if it comes up).
2. In the registry editor, navigate to
"Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop"
3. Locate the DragHeight and DragWidth values in the right hand pane
4. Select the DragHeight value, click the Edit menu, and select Modify
5. In the Value Data field, type 4 and click ok. IMPORTANT! You need to
do this step even if the registry editor already shows the value as 4!
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 with the DragWidth field.
7. You may need to restart OneNote or reboot your computer.

Please let me know if these steps work/don't work.

I thought I was going mad until I found this chain. Has a solution been
found to this problem? I've got a new Dell Latitude XT and am having the
same issue with OneNote (and Firefox as someone earlier mentioned). Tried
the reg hack posted but that didn't do anything for me.
