I can confirm this bug, BUT for Fedora 17 x64. So it's not a distro-specific issue, the bug might be somewhere in GTK3. For me it's exactly the same as has been described here. With one important notice. NOT only Nautilus! In System Settings window, when you click on System Info and move the mouse (just move without any clicking) above the information, it's selected. And also in Torcs Car Simulator the menu items are selected with hovering (I mean I don't need to make a click at all, just to put the mouse over and that's it, the menu item opens, and it isn't a normal behaviour). It seems like the left button of the mouse is always pressed or like that. This issue is not a rule, when I restart, it's OK for a while, and I still don't know the reason of the bug's activation. First I thought because of plugging in a USB-HDD, but I'm not sure now. One more important notice. My machine is a monoblock (MSI All-In-One PC) with multitouch screen. Unfortunately I don't know how to trace the bug to see the technical details and post a reasonable bug-report.
