Computer Help Needed!

Anything that has a scroll bar or slide bar automatically scrolls to the bottom of the screne. This includes webpages, scroll bars in other programs and volume control. Holding down CTRL or Shift seems to prevent this but as soon as you let go of CTRL or Shift it jumps back down to the bottom of the screen. Every so often it also has the effect of increasing the text size in the web browser to "Largest".

Things tried:

disconnecting the internet
blocking all internet access through the firewall
running virus scan (found no viruses)
restarting the computer
going into task manager and cancelling out unknown executables

Have you ever encountered this or have any idea of what could possibly be causing this??
