It's happening frequently now, has happened a few times int he past. It'll randomly start clicking when I clearly have not hit the click button. No external mouses/keyboards plugged in, just the power cord. It seemed to happen when I loaded firefox, more specifically flash based websites. I tried Opera and Safari, same problem. Then I'd quit those programs and it would stop. It may or may not have happened without them open, but I don't really notice it if it's ever happened.

Basically, when I have a youtube video on and I try to type something in to search, it ends up clicking like once every second or even more frequently so it'll always leave the box and I can't type, or if I go to the box it highlights everything I'm typing and I'm constantly overwriting it.
