No Ben it only happens in Outlook Express

I'm guessing that you're actually talking about Outlook Express which is
a very different program from Outlook.

This newsgroup is for support of Outlook 97, 98, 2000, 2002, 2003 & 2007
from the Office
family for PCs. For Outlook Express [OE] support try posting in one of these
newsgroups:
microsoft.public.inetexplorer.ie4.outlookexpress for OE 4.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie5.outlookexpress for OE 5.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie55.outlookexpress for OE 5.5x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress for OE 6.x
microsoft.public.internet.mail.mac for the Macintosh version of OE

If those groups aren't carried on the news server that's carrying this group
try using msnews.microsoft.com. That's MS's public news server that's the
source
for all the microsoft.public newsgroups.

Also a good source of Outlook Express info can be found here:

That said, does this ONLY happen in Outlook Express or does it happen to
you in other programs (like Word?) too?

I am sorry I did not give the full details, but I had an Outlook 6 I
the
updated to the Outlook 7 and that is when this and other problems
began, I
then uninstalled 7 but was left with 2 problems this one where the
cursor
will suddenly move up a line or 2, it has done it 4 times while I have
typed
out this short message, The other problem is that it will not let me
respond
to Links in the inward messages.
The windows program is Windows XP ( make that 6 times now)

Aloha old,

What version of Outlook are you using? When typing what, where?
Please try to be as specific as possible about your problem/question
so that we can give you a useful answer.

I'm having the same problem with Outlook 07, which I just installed. Cursor
jumps repeatedly, sometimes up, sometimes down, sometimes backwards. A real
problem! Didn't experience this until I installed Office 2007.
