So I will be typing away no problem, when all of a sudden here is a chunk of text from a web page or something i have previously typed, magically appearing where i type...I can't recreate, and it seems alot when i press Y or U while typing...but it has something to do with my hand hitting the touchpad and pressing a letter together :-/

Does anyone know anything about this?

go over to System»Preferences»Keyboard Shortcuts
and see if theres anything unusual.

Ive never had that problem. Might be something wrong with the keyboard.

WPOOOOOOT!

If i am holding SHIFT and double tap the top right corner of my touchpad which is the vertical scroll hot spots, it will paste :) :) see i pasted that :) :) «- and that! :D

its probably from the selection clipboard...
by default tapping the touchpad with two fingers will emulate a middle mouse click which also should result in a paste.

by the way if you have synaptics touchpad you should try out twofinger scrolling and/or circular scrolling.
