Default Selection sticks in Excel

I teach Excel to beginning students. Periodically, a student will get
something turned on that seems to lock the mouse button on while selecting
cells. They left click on a cell and then move the mouse to select a range
but when they release the mouse button, Excel continues highlighting cells
where ever they move the mouse. I have been unable to figure out how they
get it turned on or how to turn it off. Sometimes, even closing Excel
doesn't help. When Excel is re-opened, the mouse is often still stuck in
"selection mode". Any thoughts?

Thanks....Thom
