When using the trac pad it feels jerky and moves where and when it wants.

I got to click an x at the top and it goes down to the address bar. I know I'm not the only one because there's a thread over at the apple forums but no one knows how to fix it or if it's Apple's latest update that messed it up.

Perhaps someone here could shed some light on the problem. Thanks
 
Might be the sensitivity, it might be set too high, try changing it in trackpad settings.
 
I had a similar problem that was making me crazy. Turned out my battery had gone bad and the swelling was pushing against the trackpad from the inside. Try removing your battery and working off the power cord for a bit and see if that fixes the issue.
