Check under Preferences > Mouse .  If those are both set singe-activates, 
I'd guess it's related to your larger problem, as it's working here as 
expected -- single click on additional groups with ctrl pressed adds/
subtracts the just-clicked group to/from the selected list, while doing so 
with shift instead of ctrl selects ranges of groups.

But the mention of three/four times reminds me of the behavior I see when 
my touchpad is acting up -- IOW a hardware issue (or more likely firmware 
within the touchpad, or possibly the driver, in any case well below the 
application software level).

I'll reread the other thread but my sense (from memory) is it's got us 
stumped now, and we don't know what else to do but commiserate.
