this is true 
got an RAT7 (Mad Catz)
and right click sometime give 2 or 3 click events 

a lot of peoples(and I really mean A LOT) using expensive devices (mice)
are deep into this problem

fundamentally incredible is the fact that all guru's talk about bad
hardware on the linux side, leaving the problem unsolved - on windows
they all use the same trick for all devices (using autohotkey).

spending many hours over the internet to find a linux easy solution, I found that the ultimate solution is to patch the evdev driver. 
how many peoples will rebuild evdev is my question ? - very few is my response - people use Ubuntu / Mint for ease of use - geeks use  Arch < those guys know what to do but many Ubuntu users will leave the problem unsolved .. therefore please add this patch into evdev mainline.

Thanks in advance ...

Title:
  add Mouse Click Debounce Feature?

Status in xserver-xorg-input-evdev package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Model:  bonp3
  OS:  Ubuntu 10.04 LTS

  When I single click the mouse (external USB Mouse - Mouse Pad
  disabled) half the time the system responds as though I have double
  clicked the mouse.  I try 2 different USB mouse units and it still
  does this.  I am running Ubuntu 10.04 on a separate PC that does not
  have this mouse problem.  So I am thinking this problem is a System76
  driver issue???

  It's annoying.  :(
