Disable Touch Feature - Drag opens new window

We have a fullscreen kiosk application running on a touchscreen computer that
uses Windows 7 and IE8. Whenever a user clicks and drags a link even a few
pixels, that link opens in a new tab. I'm sure this is a slick feature for
those using the computer to browse, but it completely destroys the
effectiveness of our application. Is there any way to disable this function?
I searched through the Options and Control Panel and couldn't find a way to
do it. We go live with this application in a couple of days.

Thanks!

Hi Rob,

Thanks for your reply. I'll give the "kiosk" mode a shot, but we're
currently using Javascript to do a full screen interface, per the vendor's
request. Any way to disable this under a Javascript setup?
