  KMouseTool clicks the mouse whenever the mouse cursor pauses briefly. It was designed to help those with repetitive strain injuries, for whom pressing buttons hurts.

KMouseTool can eliminate the pain caused by clicking the mouse, and helps many people to use the computer without pain.

Just to make it absolutely clear: while KMouseTool can help reduce the pain caused by clicking the mouse, it cannot help any pain caused by moving the mouse. And, like all ergonomic tools, your mileage may vary.
