Dell Dimension 411, WinXP, AOL,  - This ONLY happens when online - Cursor jumps from original place to right upper corner about every 5 – 6 seconds then when it returns to original place I have to click on mouse to set it to type again.  So I get about 4 seconds to type ANYTHING.  I am typing this in Word and will have to cut & paste to forum.
     I have run Dell DX, pcPitstop DX, reinstalled mouse and monitor drives, have done “Quick Restore” on AOL, reinstalled AOL Adapter (as the AOL tech said it might be damaged), gone thru all settings I know to check, checked for viruses (Norton Corporate) and adware (ad-Aware).  This is driving me crazy!!
     ALSO, sometimes when I click on an email or a website an ADV will cover my page and every time I try to click it off it COMES right back.  What’s happening???
Hi, you've already done what I would have suggested (reinstalled mouse and monitor drivers) so perhaps scanning with http://housecall.trendmicro.com may help.
Sorry I can't be of more help,

Derek.I use a Dell Latitude D600 laptop and have frequent drifting of the pointer when on the Internet, I saw this OCCASIONALLY on my old IBM machine but much worse on Dell, maybe it's a Dell issue ?check mouse settings.....in the control panel.....what mouse is this ??Have you scanned for viruses/worms/trojans?
