The problem has been apparent for the last few weeks.

The problem goes away if I click Format and move the setting from "Rich
Text" to "Plain Text" and back to "Rich Text" again.

Is there a better fix?

Running IE7 and XP Professional - no other problems.

Tried disabling the touchpad on your laptop?

Yes, that helped my fumble-fingered typing; but didn't solve the jittering.

Thanks,
