Netbook problem - cursor keeps selecting by itself

Hi
I have an MSI U130 netbook computer with a built-in mouse pad. Whenever I am typing, after a minute or so the cursor moves to wherever the pointer is resting and selects whatevers there! So if for example I forget to move the pointer away from the text of an email, it can just suddenly move to a previous line and continues there, which is a nightmare. I am definitely not accidently brushing the mouse pad or anything.
Any ideas?
Many thanks

Try opening 'Control Panel' which you'll find by clicking on 'Start'.
Open 'Control Panel' and then open 'Mouse'.
See if there's a box you can tick or untick to stop the mouse doing its own thing.
