I purchased a hp envy 4 ultrabook. Its great but I'm infuriated at the touchpad. The click buttons and the touch pad are combined together but the click button area is touch sensitive. I usually rest my thumb on the right click but the mouse cursor goes completely crazy on this machine.

Is there any way to disable a section of the touchpad? Basically make the click button area have nothing to do with the pointer function.

I did see this post: Disable touch pad for mouse button region on new HP pavillion models?

but the solution presented in that only limited the area from which the touchpad can begin. Since I rest my thumb on the click buttons, I would like to completely disable the click button area of the touchpad.

Thank you.
