Have her enable the "TouchCheck" feature and play with where the sensitivity
slider works best for her.  On my Win 7 laptop it's found under:

Control Panel
  Mouse
    "Dell Touchpad" tab of the Mouse Properties window.
      Click on the picture of the Touchpad.
        Click on "Touchpad Settings"
          TouchCheck is down at the bottom.  Enable and start with the
slider in the middle somewhere.

HTH.
