Kill the mouse

[Tam]

Hi group,

Workin on a pet project where I want to be able to kill the mouse (or
even hiding it would do, as long as its unusable) then be able to bring
it back. Being able to do the same to the keyboard would also be
useful... perhaps mess about with the mappings so A comes out as B etc
etc.

Any ideas on how to accomplish this?

Any help/ideas appreciated.

By the way, just so we're all on the same song sheet. I want to run
this as a service that hides the mouse in windows in general not just
in the application Im creating/using.

Cheers Michael... I haven't time to get around to this today but at
least I now know where to look... many thanks.
