Okay, more information. I have a desktop Compaq Presario. I use Windows 98. My mouse is also a Compaq. I use AOL. The mouse/point and click arrrow was working fine. Yesterday, I logged off for a couple of hours, logged back on, and now whenever I get to the sign in window for AOL and while on line, the point and click arrow will not stay visible as I move it across any on line area on the monitior/screen/window. I have to move the mouse to the the bottom gray bar area that has the various Outlook Express, AOL, Show Desktop, Volumn, Time, Start, etc. icons (it reappears there), then hold down the right or left click side of the mouse while I drag it to the area I want click on while on line. I have to do this after every on liine point and click. The mouse/point and click arrow is always and completely visible and works fine while off line, however. It's just while signing on and on line that it does a Houdini. Please computer techs, help me. Thank you.
