I have a laptop that as I am typing there are times the cursor jumps?

around to another part of the page I am on, or up into what I have been typing and if I dont catch it, it really screws up what I am typing. I am usually pretty good about getting things fixed or troubleshooting, but this has me bugged. Just typing this question it has done it twice now. Who has a clue or an answer for me ?

Update:

I dont think it matters but its an Acer Aspire, I had an older Gateway that did the same thing.

Update 2:

As I am typing it will jump randomly to another part of the page or back into the text field I am typing in. I dont get how a mouse virus would do that. when its the keyboard I am using not the mouse.
