    I went to the site & d/l the program. Scaned it & it said virus free, but when I go to install it, it come up with a warning of unwanted problems in the program.

    Hi

    Personally I would not advise downloading any of these cursor/icon type packages as they have always been a bit suspect for many years (while their is likely to be the odd site that has downloads that are ok devientart.com for one) and you just know you will end up with malware once installed the package. Also when you get feedback like this on WOT on that site then its not worth the hassle (noted that there are a few sites with similar names and emding in .net over .com, which makes the job of weeding out the good from bad harder)

    Can do a scan with the likes of Jotti and see what it lists as it runs the virus dat file from many of the popular AV scanners.

    What Windows version are you using as well as what Antivirus?

    But to sum up personally I wouldnt download any of these cursor things.

    Thank you for the reply. I am using XP with AVG virus scanner. I have a problem with the pointers as I am legally blind and have used a yellow pointer in the past, with good results.Working on getting my eyes operated on this month, but would still like to have a large yellow pointer. Thank you again for the reply.:wave
