Cursor disappears while typing

We are having a problem that the cursor disappears every few minures while
typing. I have seen some posts about cursors moving, but I have narrowed it
down to something specific. It apparently happens every time that Outlook
"auto-saves" a document. If I set the auto-save frequency to 3 minutes, it
happens every 3 minutes, or if I make it 10 minutes it does it every 10. So
I'm pretty sure it is tied to the auto-save, but how can I stop the cursor
from disappearing or relocating? It's frustrating when this happens. Turning
off auto-save is not an option.
We are using Outlook 2003 and Vista.
Thanks, Peter

This is an option that can be set in your Mouse Properties in the Control Panel. It
is called "Hide Pointer While Typing" Uncheck that option
