My trackpad is going crazy, cursor moves on its own

My trackpad shows no visible change, however my cursur moves on its own, clicks on things, drags icons, and at other times refuses to move. Sometimes for a moment it will work, but then it is back again. I highly suspect malware. My computer worked fine, there is no sign of hardware damage and I reset my Pram. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2010), Mac OS X (10.6.6)

Read my post and check. There is litterally 30-40 of these same posts on this forum and my solution works.


"Ok I have had this issue for months. I figured out that it was a folder workflow that I put on the machine."
