Broken record time:

1) Never use "repeat until the mouse is whatever"
2) Never use idle, mouseStillDown, or mouseWithin messages

Think of it like going for a long drive after the oil pressure light
in your car's dashboard goes on.  You'll learn the lesson the next day
when your car starts smoking profusely and burning a quart of oil
every 10 miles.  Not to mention what your friends and other fellow
drivers will think of your automotive skills.
  Regards,
