... If you don't want to use the arrow keys to move, why, exactly, are you playing older games? Lots of older games require arrow key movement... and I can't imagine what the problem could possibly be with it, either... they're there for a reason!
What do you want, I mean? WASD movement? The only reason games use that is to use the other keys around it for other functions, and because this game doesn't support that, the arrow keys are exactly the same as WASD would be. So I have no idea what your complaint is, besides perhaps that it should have keyboard hotkeys for the interface buttons (if you are complaining about that, I'm not sure). Keyboard for movement and mouse for aiming is the perfect first-person game control setup, after all.
I honestly can't imagine how anyone could actually prefer "hold the mouse button down to go forward" to the usual "press forward"... can you explain?
You have to use the mouse to look around and use the interface because there are no hotkeys for the buttons, and for interacting with the environment (picking up arrows manually, for instance, if you don't want to just walk over them), but at least you can move around with the keyboard, which is very good. If you had to use the mouse for movement it'd be just awful...
As for the graphical glitches you're talking about, I have no idea. The only time I've noticed anything is when I try to alt-tab out and back; that turns the whole screen black and you can't fix the problem without quitting. I'm sure that there's something at the forum I linked which can help you though... oh, and are you using the patch or not?
