Hey, ive been having this problem for around 3 days now. When im typing, my screen scrolls up, as if im hitting the up arrow on my key board. Its frustrating to read things. Even writing this paragraph is difficult as it keeps moving my flashing line to a random part in my paragraph. Its not my mouse, i already unplugged it, and its still going. There isnt any pop spilled on my y keyboard either. thanks.:norris:

Try the keyboard on a different pc, you can recognize it if the keyboard fails, if so buy a new one. Ditch Windows.

Do you accidentally scroll up with the touch pad when you type? :p I do that sometimes.

nope. I thought i was, so i jsut viewed the villavu homepage, and went to the bottom, and like every 5 seconds it went up a bit.

and i agree with _99 (got your name right) i think u acidtnly bump the mouse pad when typing iused to do that when i was on a latop it sucked cause i was writing a speech and i kept typoing stuff inrandom spots along the speech so i got lost all the time

J_Pizzle, you got his name wrong :p

:topic ->
I really think it's the mouse pad… Try again scrolling down VillaVu, using a single finger, strike the key from above, so that it's physically IMPOSSIBLE to touch another key/button/w.e.

does it scroll up when you type? or all the time?

First post says whilst typing, but post 5 seems to say that it just scrolls up once every 5 seconds?

I went to the homepage, lined top of the screen up with the top of the mission statement, got a drink, came back, and it was at the top of the page. Its definetly not a virus. my computer scans at 6am automatically, and there werent any viruses this morning and i didnt download anything but the new scar.

sorry for double post, im lazy. It doesnt really scroll, it is if im pressing the up arrow key. So viewing pages, its scrolling, typing, just goes to the sentence above what im typing(extremely annoying!)

u said it was a laptop right?

well if ir emember correctly (hanvt used a laptop in forever) you can plug a normal keyboard into them plug a normla keyboard in cause that should bypass the built in one and see if it happens again

If that doesn't work, restart the computer. I tend to have this sometimes with the left arrow key, and a restart fixes it.

Drivers, or spyware somehow I thought about it for the second time it is familiar in far distance. Try to update your video driver, and try S&D and Anti-malwarebytes.
