Cursor automatically jumps back when typing

When typing a message or anything the cursor
will automatically jump back in the text - makes it
almost impossbile to type messages or enter data.
How can I make this stop or how do I turn this off?

I am using windows xp professional and this is happening with
all my applications - Excel, Outlook Express and Internet Explorer7
I am on a Dell Inspiron 6400 laptop with touch pad enabled. When I
start typing any kind of text or adding data in all my applications
the cursor will automatically jump back in the text. This started a couple
of days ago and I have tried everything that I knew how to solve this
problem and get this turned off.

From an old old reply (Jan 09, 2006):

Check for third-party interference (not necessarily "malware"
just incompatible programs you have added).

A likely possibility in this category would be Motive SmartBridge
monitor some ISPs install on their customers' computers
which has in the past been suspected of interrupting keyboard focus in OE.
