My mouse jumps around and moves as if it is controlling itself, it clicks and right clicks as if someone else is moving my mouse. It jumps around and highlights things and won't let got of them even if I try clicking. Sometimes I can't even use my mouse, and have to resort to keyboard functions to select things.

I have a wireless mouse and even when I unplug it and use just the trackpad, it still happens. I also have tried turning the wireless internet off, but this still happens. This morning when I checked my computer, I had 6 untitled folders in my desktop, Finder was open, and had pictures up in Preview as well. Please help! This is a very annoying problem!
