Disabling left and right mouse button together = middle mouse click?

Hi all,
HAL seems to make left and right click together equal a middle mouse button click. Can I turn this off?
I guessed it would be the old "disable 3 button emulation" from xorg.conf so I put that into an fdi file for HAL to read but it doesn't work.

My fdi file reads as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISP=8859-"?>
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
  <device>
    <match key="info.capabilities" contains "input.mouse">
      <merge key="input.x11_driver" type="string">mouse</merge>
      <merge key="input.x11_options.Emulate3Buttons" type="string">no</merge>
      <merge key="input.x11_options.ZAxisMapping" type="integer">4 5</merge>
 
    <!-- Kensington Specifics -->
    <match key="@input.originating_device:usb.vendor_id" int="047d">
      <match key="@input.originating_device:usb.product_id" int="102e">
      </match>
    </match>
     
     </match>
   </device>
</deviceinfo>

I'm not sure whether I need the bit under Kensington Specifics, I saw an example done like that with a Logitech mouse so did the same using my Kensington's details.

Normally it wouldn't really matter but for games I need my left, right, middle, 4th, 5th and left+right together to be mapped to different things :-)

Thanks for your help!

Soggy.
