I know this is a ludicrous way to provide an option to the user instead of just putting it in the UI, but:

- View->Options->Change folder and search options

- Enable single-click, then on the View tab, enable "use check boxes to select items"

- Then Regedit...

- HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Control Panel/Mouse

- Set MouseHoverWidth and MouseHoverHeight to 0, or increase MouseHoverTime.

Now you have single-click without hover-select, and checkboxes to select.
