I know its not always the best way to do things and I think this is prob a feature in windows xp itself that I need to enable but How can I make it so I simply move my mouse pointer over to another window and only have to click once to do a click action in wow....for example...I want to go over to my shamans wow window and click first aid to make some bandages but I have to click twice (once to change my focus into that wow window and a second time to click the first aid button)....Can i enable something like auto-steal focus in windows to do this or?

I believe KeyClone does this automactly using maximizer, not sure about the other mulitplexers tho ..

Yea so this thread finally convinced me to buy key clone.....Now....I find out this feature is bugged ....If I leave this on it will cause me to be unable to move my mouse down to the second windows sometimes (it seems after looting in paritculiar). I am using maximizer. I searched the forums and the only solution i can find is "Turn off FOCUS-FOLLOWS-MOUSE"...I would really like to have this feature as its the main reason I purchased keyclone :(

Ok I am going to try to do it with a program called XMOUSE as someone suggested on the forums here

I installed "Powertoys for XP" (its on microsofts site, you can google for it) and it lets me set XP so that just mousing over a window sets focus to it. Takes a bit getting used to and Ive yelled at my PC sometimes, but works nicely for mboxing.
