Have I got a virus?

Whenever I use the keyboard it seems to have a mind of its own, jumping about so that I have a job spelling and have to keep making corrections. It jumps back to a previous line or appears in the middle of a word.
I am using Vista. Has anyone got a clue?

Doubtful its a virus but if you want peace of mind just run an online scanner
bitdefender or nod32-eset will find & remove any for free
Uncontrollable laptop mouse / cursor

Thanks Deuce,
I don't use a mouse on my laptop and scanning does not show any viruses.
It seems a common problem but what's the remedy?
Is anybody out there?
Mike.

try downloading CCCleaner, gets rid of all the junk on your PC or Laptop. Ive used it a number of times and the PC runs so much faster. Highly recommended.
