Uncontrollable Scrolling

    This is a strange one. I've been having an intermittent problem (once a month'ish) on my laptop (Thinkpad T43, WinXP, SP2) - which just happened again! I'm reading a mail and all of a sudden after paging down the app takes over and scrolls me to the top of the page. I exit the mail - and the Inbox scrolls up to the top. In both cases, I can no longer scroll down!!! If you try Pg Dn, it just pops you back to the top. Closing Notes (my mail app) doesn't sort it. Other apps also become effected eg. wordpad etc. and scroll up to the top. Only thing I can do is reboot laptop. Did a quick google, no leads as yet. Thoughts?

    Moving to laptops.

    Try reinstalling the drivers for your touchpad.
