Default Using mouse to select a single cell within the worksheet

Using Excel 2007, it seems every time I select a cell (as in a single cell),
it selects the one I clicked on and the three below it. So, if I wan't to
select a cell and right-click to clear the contents of the cell....it clears
the three below it as well. I can't seem to get it to stop selecting four at
a time. To make it worse, it sometime selects the two columns worth of data.

I've tried rebooting, working with a different document, working with a
different mouse (laptop fingermouse, external wireless, external wired). This
makes it so difficult to work with my expensive new office software that I
will either have to uninstall it or use Open Office.

I would look for any add-ins or COM add-ins that are responding to a cell
selection event.
