Disable MBP Touchpad

Unfortunately due to liquid damage, my integrated touchpad on my Mid 2009 Macbook Pro has started playing up.

For example the mouse will randomly move around my screen and left and right click spontaneously.

I have a magic mouse as I use the MBP on a desk so dont really have a need for the actual touchpad.

Yes, I know its a shame and yes I will look to have it repaired but for the time being I want to know if there is a way of completed disabling to touchpad so it stops interfering with my Mac as its really annoying now!

Cheers
Adam

Doesn't matter.

I find the option via "Universal Settings"
