Internet Explorer changes mouse cursor


map7

Recommended Posts

I'm Running Windows XP with the latest patches up till 10 April 2006 and I get an error with IE 6.

When moving the Internet Explorer window the cursor turns into a black move cursor and will not change back without going to the mouse properties and changing it. This is very annoying.

You cannot re-size the IE window either.

The problem happened when the validation tool was installed for Windows Updates.

Things which have been done are:

Ran windows update and installed all current patches

Uninstalled IE and reinstalled it, although it never fully uninstalls IE anyway.

Ran virus scanner f-prot with the latest dictionaries, no viruses found

Ran Search and Destroy with latest dictionaries only three Spyware applications found/removed.

If I access IE through by entering a URL into My Computer we don't have a problem.

What should I try next?

Re-install Service pack 2...

I'm not saying the problem is with service pack two, nor that I have heard of this problem before.

I work in IT and generally after everything you have already done reinstalling Service pack 2 is the quickest way to restore a machine.
