As the title says, a small hourglass to the lower right of the curser blinks about once per second. I've never noticed it before this morning and I'm curious as heck about what's going on. I ran MalwareBytes 2.0, MSE, M$FT Malicious Tool Remover, TDSS Killer, and JRT. All show no problems. I'm also running MalwareBytes Anti-Exploit, but it doesn't matter if it's running or stopped. The blinking continues.

BTW, I'm running Win7 64 Home Edition. My wife's laptop has the same version of Windows with the same "anti-nasty" wares, but her curser doesn't blink.:chair:

Any info, advice, solutions will be greatly appreciated.
 
Have you checked the mouse/pointer settings in Control Panel? Maybe the pointer style setting got changed.
