I will be surfing the net and sudenly it will jump to the top left side of the screen, or to the side, or by the bottom where the clock is, and it is freaking me out. I can't get it to stop and I wind up clicking things. It will also point to the X to close a tab in firefox. (I hate that the most)

If you have a mouse that has a roller ball inside, you might need to take that out and clean inside there. The little wheels get clogged up with debris and also the ball can get crumbs, hair and lent on there. Causes the mouse to act erratically. I use to routinely take my mouse apart and clean off the ball and wheels. I have an optical mouse now and so far haven't had any problems with it.

your computer has been hyjacked....run a virus scan, but you will have to reboot first, might try unplugging your internet also while you reboot.
