Single click delay

This is a minor annoyance, but I never could find a solution to it. I need to know
if there's any way to set the amount of miliseconds between the click and the action
in single click mode. For example, when you single click on a folder while using
single click mode it doesn't open at the moment you click, it takes like 300 miliseconds.
Does anyone knows a way to adjust this to less miliseconds?
Thanks,
Sebastian

I had the same complaint!
Go to Control Panel/System
On the Advanced Tab there is a button for Performance/Settings. Click this button
and under the Visual Effects tab you will find a list of all these annoying delays,
fades, etc. I turned all of them off (click "adjust for best performance") and my
machine works like a computer again.

run regedit (please back up your registry before making any changes). do a File->Find
for "DoubleClickSpeed" and change the data value from the default 500 to 100. keep
hitting F3 to find and replace all occurrences and you should notice a difference.
