Hate that. You might want to try hitting ctl-z right away. That's the keyboard command for undelete. My guess is that you're using a laptop with a mousepad. If so, you might be touching the mouse pad unknowingly and causing it to select text, then you're deleting it. It can happen so fast you might feel like a magician using slight-of-hand.
