Menu Activates Randomly

<div class="IPBDescription">-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-</div> It happens most often as a lerk, and most of the time in combat. My Mouse1 is fire, Mouse2 is crouch, Mouse3 is still menu, Mouse4 is spraypaint, Mouse5 is drop weapon.

Jump(fly) key is end.

So I will be in there hitting End and Leftmouse, chomping away, and then the menu will come up out of nowhere and I'll get shot up and die.

I know for a fact I'm not activating the middle mouse.

Mouse is MS five-button IntelliMouse Optical USB

    I had this happen to me alot, most often when spamming "fire" to use the marine pistol but sometimes with other weapons. I have yet to figure out exactly what caused it--perhaps I was unconsciously hitting mouse2 (which was my menu key), or perhaps there was some command bleed in the mouse drivers, or perhaps it really is a bug (although the devs dont think so, and lock it whenever its reported).

    In any case, I finally got annoyed enough that I moved my menu key off my mouse and onto my keyboard, and everything works fine now. It takes a day or so to get used to, but it doesnt really hurt you much. The slight inconvenience will be more than made up for by not triggering menu accidently anymore.
