mouse moving to top left corner

I do NOT have Smart Move enabled yet suddenly my mouse now moves on its own either up to
top left corner or to the start button.

Does this sound like a virus?

Thanks

Thanks Patty but the download was not for win98 and in keyboard properties I do not have
the pointer activity tab.

Any other suggestions as it is driving me batty!

In the far back recesses of my mind, I'm thinking that it might be a virus -
as you first suggested. I know that I've heard of another reason for this
but just can't get ahold of it right now. Suffering from CRS. <g>

Question
Why does the cursor jump around with my optical mouse?

Answer
Some dark surfaces may cause the cursor to move by itself or jump to different parts of
the screen. Please test your device on a white sheet of paper to determine if this is the
case.
