Reoccurring problem when typing emails or documents

I have a reoccurring problem when typing emails or documents. I can be composing and all of a sudden, the cursor will shift to several lines above and begin entering the letters I am typing. I also can generate a "Highlight" line, which if I'm not paying attention, will delete that line. Very frustrating to say in the least.


Anyone help? Seems like a keyboard problem, but cannot characterize it. Thanks in advance. jn

Turn off "Tap to click" in the Trackpad System Preferences.
