On any 2003 word document, whenever i type, the mouse arrow disappears. I
already turned off this mouse function in the control panel (under mouse, you
can uncheck the option that makes the mouse disappear when you type). But the
mouse arrow disappears anyhow and I cannot locate it unless I move the mouse
out of the document...then it reappears again. But this is making moving my
cursor throughout my document very annoying. I keep having trouble finding
the arrow and have to spend time wiggling my mouse every single time I want
to see the arrow! Is this a bug? Or is there a way to make this stop?

I don't know, but if you ask this 4 times, how do I know where to
reply? So please followup in the original thread only!

If it has an "X" in the name, it must be Linux?

Try reinstalling the mouse driver and make sure it is the latest available.
