Hi...

Ok , I admit it !! O am not Windows XP good....

I want to add pointer tails to my pointers.....yes I did
check the box in the mouse catagory....
But I want the likes of what you see on different sites ,
such as butterflies or hearts following your pointer
around... understand ?? I hope so cause I am not sure if I
am explaining it right....

So what program do I need to have this on my computer????

Thank you in advance !!

The pointer trails you see on web sites is accomplished by using the HTML or
Java code on thoise web sites. This would not work as an option for the
operating system.

That said, there may be programs out there that can accomplish this, but I
have not seen any. You might try searching on Google for such a program.

They are called 'comet cursors' and the software used to install them (web
only) is the nastiest, most evil spyware known to humankind. You do *NOT*
want it on your system.

Not necessarily. The mouse trails effect can be added to a webpage or HTML
module with simple javascript. I do agree about your description of comet
cursor.
