I have another type of TouchSmart, but this may work for you:
I tried the method of the control panel > hardware and sound > pen and touch and then disable the option 'use your finger as input device', but this option is not there for me! If anyone knows how to do this, I would be very grateful. I was looking for an answer on how to do it, but I did not find anything.
