Lately I often find myself typing an eMail or a school paper, when suddenly the cursor "jumps" to another line and my new words end up in the middle of something already written. Is there some way to stop this? I'm working on a Toshiba laptop, and I know I'm not hitting any other keys, the fingerpad, or anything else. Thanks!

maybe some thing stuck below the keys? Try blowing some canned air in to clean it out,.

Thanks!I had a teacher having the same problem and absolutely knew she wasn't touching the pad either. When I watch her type, her bracelet would bounce on the touch pad from time to time.
