anilbehl, SWAG, there was a trojan around that did that. Maybe you have it? Be aware that a virus and a Trojan are similar, but not the same. Many times, an AV detects one it can't clean, other times, it gets missed entirely. If you need to clean one, Superantispyware (info only. I’m not paid for recommendation) can do the job and you can get it free @: http://www.superantispyware.com/ among other places. They have a Vista compatible version if needed. Dunno about Windows 7 or later. If it turns out that you need to use it, be sure to update Superantispyware prior to running and disable 'restore' (restart after cleaning) so the nasty doesn't get put back. They just released a new update recently and it changes all the time. Things are in a constant state of flux. The restore thing is critical. May not be your deal at all, but won't hurt anything to try. HTH. Ed in Texas.

Hi there, I had this problem when ever I used the touch pad or track ball or when I was typing anything (it would have liked to drive me crazy and undermine all my painstaking type work) but I just got this replacement LION battery for my Dell D620 and it has completly stopped. Its weird-it was doing it all the time and now its toyally gone. Hope this helps. LT
