Petit Robert Dictionnaire de la langue francaise has for "cliquer":
1306; onomat. from "clic". 1. vx. Faire un bruit sec (see "cliqueter"). 2. (angl. "to click") Inform....(...) "Double cliquer" (Anglic.)...
So it seems that the French would no see "cliquer" as an anglicism, but rather a revival of an old verb. "Double cliquer" is an obvious anglicism, though.
