When I have Flash enabled, the mouse pointer disappears when it's not being moved. When I disable Flash, this problem goes away -- but then of course I no longer have Flash. This problem only occurs with Firefox -- as soon as the mouse pointer moves off the Firefox window, the problem goes away.

This problem is extremely annoying.

Ugh -- updated a computer at work to Firefox 4, now THAT computer is doing it, never having done it before.

It looks like this problem only happens with Windows 7.
