Comment(by briandorsey):

 I was thinking about how to confirm the moisture question. Is there an
 easy way to open the laptop and disconnect the internal keyboard? If it
 then worked fine for a few days with a USB keyboard, would that confirm
 the moisture theory? Or at least narrow it down to being keyboard related?

 I had previously assumed that it couldn't be keyboard related, since it
 still happened to me even when using a USB keyboard - however if moisture
 was causing the normal keyboard to generate key strokes, it makes some
 sense.
