PB as well as iBook won't "open" apps w/normal doubleclick

[California]

Today I tried to open Safari on an iBook with a new hard drive. Wouldn't open it after clicking and clicking and doubleclicking some more on the trackpad.

Sometimes this happens on my 12" PB too.

It won't open apps normally with the doubleclick on the trackpad

What's up with that?

Does it open with a double click from an external mouse? Are you tapping the trackpad or the trackpad button? Do you have any keychangers installed?

Have you checked in System Prefs to make sure that under your trackpad options "clicking" is selected?
