Cursor disappears regularly

[Guest]

I'm running Outlook 2003 on Windows XP Pro SP2. My cursor is disappearing in
numerous situations in Outlook. First, there is no cursor in any Notes.
Second, there is no cursor in certain sections of the preview pane. Finally,
there is no cursor in certain sections of open windows (composing emails,
open received emails, etc).

The "section" that kills the cursor is about 3/4 across the open window /
preview pane. It doesn't matter if I resize or move the window... always the
same place regardless of the number of characters. For example, in a large
window with 120 characters across, the cursor might disappear around 80. But
in a small window with 50 characters, it would be 30. As stated, in Notes,
there is never a cursor anywhere.

Thanks for your assistance.

This is a longshot, but some mouse software makes the cursor disappear under
certain circumstances, for instance while typing. Maybe related?
