Computer typing and clicking things on its own at random times

    Starting a few months ago, my computer will randomly type the same sentences, hitting enter, and clicking random things. While it was in the middle of doing so, I unplugged my mouse and keyboard and it still continued on (So I know it isn't a keyboard or mouse problem). I run SpySweeper which automatically updates itself, and update Malwarebytes' Anti Malware every other day and so far everything I've removed that it has found hasn't changed anything.

    This happens a couple times a day and kind of scares me because of credit card info I've typed, passwords, etc... I'm in the process of backing up important files so I can do a full system restore, but that will take a while.

    The malware Fighters will read your logs and tell you what to do next. Depending on how busy they are, be patient. It might take a day or two to get to your logs.

    Maybe your computer has become self realized.
