When I have Flash enabled, the mouse pointer disappears when it's not being moved. When I disable Flash, this problem goes away -- but then of course I no longer have Flash. This problem only occurs with Firefox -- as soon as the mouse pointer moves off the Firefox window, the problem goes away.

This problem is extremely annoying.

Someone please help!! This is driving me crazy!

Updated to Firefox 4, problem persists.

Nobody can help me? I'm the only one with this problem?

Ugh -- updated a computer at work to Firefox 4, now THAT computer is doing it, never having done it before.

It looks like this problem only happens with Windows 7.
