The cursor has changed to a dot with a circle around it; how can I get my normal cursor back?
The cursor in the main part of Firefox has changed to a dot with a circle around it. This only occurs in Firefox and only in the page display area. I still have the arrow in the tool bar and tabs area. When moving the cursor around in the display area the dot/circle is accompanied by a blinking arrow.

You can enable your Known & Trustworthy Add-ons and Themes later. Check and tell if its working.
It's the quicktime plug-in causing the problem. If you disable it, your cursor will return to normal. Happened to me, and fixed it by doing that.
