I'm assuming that when I touch the touchpad, this should NOT happen.

There is a bigger picture here and that is when my palm rests too heavy on the touchpad, it messes with the clicking of my mouse. I'll grab tabs and scroll bars and won't let go until I click on them again.

I can reproduce this by putting 3 fingers on the touchpad and clicking on a scoll bar or tab and it will start messing up in short order.
