Are you (or something) leaning on a key? I've had strange things happen, only to find out that I was unknowingly pressing on a key.

My dog does that. Not the cat. He has more sense than that.

WE have a problem with the page "sliding" down the screen & found out it was our mouse wearing out. It's an expensive ($60) one but I guess that doesn't matter...........still only lasted 2 yrs.

It's happened to me quite a lot lately. The only thing that works for me is to shut down Internet Explorer and reopen it again. I was thinking it might be a virus of some sort.

Pam, I googled 'monitor page jumping' and it seems like the most frequent reason for the problem is the mouse. I had another mouse here from a different computer and tried it. Sure enough, the pages stopped the flickering. Perhaps that's the problem with yours too.
