We have always experienced that we mistakenly touch the touch-pad while typing, causing cursor to move and interrupt our typing. Most of the times the touch pad is placed exactly at the center of the laptop which always interrupts our typing.  Touchpad Blocker is a software that is used to prevent these touch pad interruptions while typing.  This could be a must have software for laptop and notebook users. Software helps the user to type text as fast as possible by locking mouse events during a small period after any key were pressed. The touchpad remains enabled all the time!  It is a very easy to use tool. It can be customized very well with given options (as shown in above picture) so that only touches those were mistakenly made should be blocked. The most important feature of this software is: it is absolutely Free!!  Download touch pad Blocker from here!!
