Default cursor jumps when entering text

The OP said there wasn't a problem with the touch pad - not the use of it

The usual causes of this problem are an over-sensitive touch pad
(most common - keep the heels of your hands away from it) and an
unwelcome intrusion of voice recognition software (turn off the
microphone)

In Word 2003, on my Sony Vaio laptop everytime I'm typing sentences
the cursor jumps up randomly into the middle of a prior typed
statement on the page. There isn't a problem with the touch pad or
USB connect mouse (they're connected at the same time but it hasn't
been an issue before.) This just started a couple of days ago. Any
ideas?
