And if you only want to change it for this specific case, check out
"mouse-1-click-follows-link", i.e. try

  M-x customize-variable RET mouse-1-click-follows-link

You want either "Single click time limit" (meaning that a short single
click will follow the link, a longer one will behave as before, just
moving point to the clicked position) *or* just "Single click". But
the explanation in the customize buffer is better anyway :-)
