Got a call from my daughter who's away in college (finals week of course) and out of the blue the cursor/track pad is out of control on her MacBook. Apparently the curser has a mind of it's own and is all over the screen doing various functions without any control from her. She has little or no control with it using the trackpad. Ever heard of such a problem???

Thanks

While I'd like to say that this sounds like water damage to the trackpad if it's actually opening programs, etc there could be some kind of screen sharing or remote access going on... Maybe have her completely disconnect from the internet and see if it still happens?
