Hi Arne :-)

Checking with "C-h k <left-mouse-klick>" what left clicking in a dired window is
bound to gives me (as relevant binding in a dired buffer)


----------------- up-event (short click) ----------------

<mouse-1> at that spot is remapped to <mouse-2>
which runs the command dired-mouse-find-file-other-window
  which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `dired.el'.
It is bound to <mouse-2>.
(dired-mouse-find-file-other-window EVENT)

In Dired, visit the file or directory name you click on.


So, binding it to something other than `dired-mouse-find-file-other-window'
would help.

This has been discussed a few days ago, look for "How can I make emacs open
next directory in same window?".

Hope that helps...
