Hi gang,
Maybe someone has run across this before. Intermittently the cursor on my Toshiba laptop turns into a semi-transparent square about a half to three quarters inch in size. Sometimes it appears to have a bar above and below it. It really drives my wife nuttso!! I ran SpyBot and Adaware and I seem to have something called Comet Cursors which I cannot seem to get rid of...Could this be the culprit? It appears to reside in the registry and I’m not sure if deleting it from the registry would be a problem. I can re-boot my laptop and the cursor will return to normal until the problem crops up again. I haven’t been able to pin point what triggers the cursor…just seems to be random. The cursor actually works but due to its size and shape, it is extremely difficult to work with. Any ideas on how to get rid of this problem would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks…Doc
