Right-click causes an immediate left-click to happen
Like the title says, when I right-click, a left-click is triggered immediately, which usually results in the "back" arrow in the context menu being clicked. This is quite annoying. I'm experiencing this issue on multiple different computers.
These computers have in common:
- all run Linux (Arch Linux)
- Kernel 4.20.7
- Firefox version 65.0.1 (though I'm pretty sure I've had this issue in previous versions)
- all Intel CPUs
- all use Xorg (not Wayland)
- all (I believe -- at least one, though) have the correct Intel video driver installed
- I don't experience any other weird problems related to the mouse, screen, etc. in other applications.
What I've already tried:
- safe mode: starting Firefox in safe mode does *not* solve the issue.
- someone else on these forums had the same issue, and solved it by resetting the `layout.css.devPixelsPerPx` setting to -1. This does not work for me, as the setting was never anything but the default of -1.
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

I figured out what the issue was. It was my GTK theme (Numix). It apparently made the context menu just a little too large, or offset it a little bit, so that the cursor was always above the "previous page" button, and clicked it when the right-click was released (that apparently being standard behavior on Linux -- never noticed it).
Switching GTK themes and then restarting Firefox solved the issue.

i have had click problems with mouse usually iys with wi fi mouse, now i only use wired mouse, but i assume you have checked fotr malware, try to create new profile, use Firefox profile manager ti create whole new profile. looks like you have tried everything else, if you uninstaller mouse software and reinstalled. but you will need win dicsk for that.
thats al i can think of
