sounds like you've turned on Active Desktop so your desktop acts like a web page

1. Double-Click on my computer.
2. Left-Click on view.
3. Left-Click on folder options.
4. Left-Click on settings.

if you're on XP, launch Windows Explorer > Tools > Folder Options

on the first tab there is the single/double click options
