I use to just have a little blinking cursor but I turned on the puter today
to find that it had been replaced with a big black bar about 4 spaces
long...How can I fix this?

check 'pointers' in your mouse folder properties.

Go to Control Panel > Accessibility Options > Display (tab).
Under "Cursor Options", move the "Width" slider all the way
to the left (narrow) and click APPLY.
