Just wondering - I can't find the Internet browsers' (IE or Netscape) cursor
"hand" (the cursor that appears when pointing to an Internet hyperlink)
inside control panel / mouse or the actual .cur file anywhere inside
c:\winnt. Is this some special Windows cursor, or does it come with the
browser software and can't be configured like all other Windows
mouse pointers in control panel / mouse properties?

Thanks for any assistance,
Ron T.

At least in Windows 2000, the cursor is called "link select" and shows
up in the pointers page of the mouse control panel.

Thanks. It's good to know that MS added this pointer to the customizations
in Windows 2000. (I'm still running Windows NT4.)
