stopping blinking mouse pointer
why is it I cannot stop my mouse pointer from blinking and hiding while using Firefox 9.01
I have been using Firefox for almost two decades and now this is so annoying I,m wasting time when maybe I should be learning to use another browser like Opera,

You may have switched on caret browsing.
You can press press F7 (on Mac: fn + F7) to toggle caret browsing on/off.
- Tools > Options > Advanced : General: Accessibility: [ ] "Always use the cursor keys to navigate within pages"

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
