[FO2] i can RUN in SNEAK mode! help!!

First time out of the vault
ok, it isn't a good thing as the title suggests...
i just started playing fo2 after finishing fo1 for several times. now i got a buggie issue in fo2 - i never toggle on 'always run', and i am in SNEAK mode, but occasionally when i click somewhere the character starts RUNNING to it!
come on! i wanna infiltrate the villains hive, i wanna take them out one by one without a scratch, i wanna stay out of gang fights or sth like that. now its ruined.
has anyone experienced this? or do i need 100% sneak skill to gurantee a 100% chance of not running in sneak mode?

oh yes, by the way. may i ask if i need 200% skill to handle weapons perfectly in fo2?
as i thought 100% is quite enough in fo1 before i randomly hear someone saying 200% and u can snipe better in longer range in fo2, which ring some bell as i found in fo2, with 71% small gun skill i cant get more than 50% chance of hitting the torso from 3hex away while wielding a pistol!
is it true?
 
You sure you aren't pressing [Shift]? Also, although I'm not entirely sure, but perhaps pressing Caps Lock would have made a difference too.
 
thanks for ur quick reply.
i actually doubted if i pressed shift or not. the case is it happens randomly so i need more time to wait until it happens again. but, u know - I AM THE STEALTHBOY, meaning i sneak around in almost anywhere i assume hostile. so it wont take long.

yeah, found it. i ran i sneak mode again. i tried clicking anywhere in sneak mode, then about once in 20 times i started running. as i invested more skill points in sneak, things seemed to be better, the failure frequency dropped as far as i perceived.

That's strange. I've played through Fallout 2 twice but never have I experienced a glitch like this. You're not supposed to just stand up and run from sneaking position.
 
I remember something like this. I think it happens when you click the same hex twice, even if you save and load the game in between. The game seems to count that as a double click.
 
Might just be your mouse acting up and double-clicking even though you're just single-clicking. I've had that happen before.
Check if it only happens in-game.
Maybe just click on random text here on the forum and see if it starts selecting portions as if you were double clicking.
