I have a Dell Dimension 4550 running XP Home Edition SP1.
768 MB RAM 2.53 GHz Pentium 4. I have a wireless
Intellimouse Explorer. Just recently my mouse pointer has
been disappearing while viewing web pages. When I move off
the page my pointer is visible again. What is causing
this? How can I correct it?

Goto Control Panel, Mouse
Then goto the Pointer Options tab
Then unselect "Hide pointer while typing"
