Hello,

I'm desperately looking for help on this one. All of a sudden at some point
of time whatever window i have active will scroll to an extreme (sometimes
its all to the right, and sometimes it goes all to the bottom). If i
forcibly try to push the scroll bar up that doesn't work either, unless i
push it up and don't bring my cursor back into the main 'body' of the window
(meaning if i hover on the toolbars or on the task bar or basically anywhere
except the main place) then the scrolling doesn't happen. Only way to solve
this so far is a reboot, but that's SUCH a pain when i'm at work and have
apps open.

I guess I can conclude that its not because any keys on the keyboard may be
stuck because a reboot wouldn't solve it in that case right? Also it doesn't
seem to be a laptop issue because i've had it on different laptops. I tried
googling it but i'm not even sure what keywords to use as just "auto
scrolling windows xp" etc. brings up too many irrelevant links.

This current laptop is an IBM Thinkpad T60, and I have windows xp SP2 and
this auto scrolling happens on any active window (as i mentioned) and
doesn't specifically happen with the start of any specific app. Would
appreciate any help on this, thanks very much!
