Where are you typing (what program)?

I guess it's the touchpad that causes this. If you come close enough to the touchpad while typing, it often interprets this wrongly as a mouse pointer movement. There should be a utility installed (by Dell) on your laptop that disables the touchpad while typing. You can look in the Control Panel under Mouse. Let us know if you find it.

if you do not use the tapping function on the tap pad, then disable it.  Go into control panel, click on the mouse icon.
