Is your monitor an old CRT? (Cathode Ray Tube) Big, bulky heavy box-like monitor just like an old TV?

If it is, it's capable of going bad the same way an old TV would. Time to just get a new monitor. Flat Panel LCDs will never have this problem and use 1/10th the amount of electricity as a CRT.

Another mouse, a new one and the jumping stopped. Thanks for your suggestions.
Turned out to be a defective mouse... (I've sent it to the local nursing home)!
