Wife is screaming in frustration, so maybe somebody has some ideas.
When typing, the keyboard on her computer sends the cursor moving randomly all over the place. Most typically, of course, this happens when using her Gmail account, as she does the most typing with email.
But it also happens when typing in website addresses, in password forms, etc.
Sometimes the cursor goes up or back some lines to a new position and this deletes all of the typing past that point. It does not do it all the time, however, and there is no telling when it will happen.
Computer: AVA Direct custom built, purchased approximately 5 years ago. Vista, 2GB memory. It has a touchpad, but she's using a USB wireless mouse. Batteries in the mouse are always fresh, replaced when old.
Could it be the wireless system? (I forget what wireless mouse this is; I'm writing from work right now.)
Uninstall and reinstall the mouse?
New mouse?
