RE: When i type everything gets messed up by kotjze on 07-31-2009 at 04:10 PM Are you using a laptop? RE: When i type everything gets messed up by bedoor on 07-31-2009 at 08:32 PM Yes, why? RE: When i type everything gets messed up by Patchou on 07-31-2009 at 08:42 PM well, it tends to happen to me sometimes, because of the touchpad. When you type, your thumbs may be above the mouse area of yoru laptop and if you go to near, the laptop may register it as a click and move your cursor in some random places. In general, good touchpad drivers have an option to disable the pad for a small delay when a key was pressed, to avoid that problem (never understood why it was not activated by default though).

If your laptop has a Synaptics touchpad then take a look at the driver settings for PalmCheck: |
