Cursor takes the form forms only in Internet Explorer and not in google chrome etc...

I use Windows 7 64 bit and IE 11 on my HP ProBook s 4430. Everytime I open a Web site (for example search Google or even this window where I'm typing this msg) and type text, the cursor shape is changed automatically. Sometimes it is a very simple thin bar and a few moments after, seen with spirals on the subject, it is sometimes very thick bar, sometimes a black square at one end of the slider bar. Interestingly, it does not happen in MS Word or any other software where required to be entered text. I had resettled twice windows after formatting the system volume, but the question remains as it is. I saw scanned with antivirus, MS Security essential, MS Malware and spyware scanner scanners, but nothing was found. Any body help me.

Thank you very much, Mr. Stanley. First, as suggested by you, I tried to solve the problem by uninstalling and installing Plug-ins (Acrobat Flash Player and Microsoft Silverlight), but did not succeed. Finally, I uninstalled IE 11 and, wow, it worked. It is now very well. There is no change in the shape of the cursor (even in this window, where I am typeing this msg.). But I'm still confused because IE 11 works fine on my PC while the problem happened on my laptop HP ProBook 4430 s only.

In any case, I'm exteremly sorry for geeting your much time to solve this problem, but it may help others too. Thanks again.

  • When I download an update for a program it opens Internet Explorer and not Firefox

    Firefox is always kept open on my PC. When I have an update of the program, I accept that but then Internet Explorer opens for me to download the update. It would normally usually Firefox. Why opens Internet Explorer and not open in Firefox as per normal?

    Which depends on the program involved. Some programs will use the default browser , that the user has defined in preferences, while others will use the browser that comes with the operating system. IE in the case of Safari on Mac and Windows.

    5. Click on 'Select Normal' to highlight and press the button "Browse".

    6. Scroll the list of available cursors and find the files named 'aero_link,' 'aero_link_l' and 'aero_link_xl '. These files contain icons of the hand in three sizes, from the smallest to the largest.

    7. Click on the file of the icon of the desired size. Press the button 'open '. Repeat this process if you want to change all other cursors. For your pointer still resemble a hand, do it for each other cursor on the list 'customize '.

    8. Press the 'Ok' button when you are finished editing all the sliders. The system will immediately change the appearance of the pointer of your.

  • Button 'Send' the form Center in Internet EXPLORER 8

    I have a simple form (not yet working) on a page that I see (url below) that has a button 'Submit' at the bottom of the form. I created a class called .center that defines the top and bottom margin values, as well as 'auto' for the left and right margins. And it sets the display to 'block '. I applied this category for the submit"" button. It seems centered in Firefox but not in Internet EXPLORER 8. Can someone tell me why and I would like to know how I could get the button centered in the two browsers?

    Thanks a lot for your help.

    Looks like you may have a virus or other malware. Get your updated antivirus program and boot into Safe Mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan in Safe Mode. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

    If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.

    -

    You can check the corrupted system files. Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type CMD in the search box, right-click on CMD. EXE and click run as administrator. Then, from the command prompt type sfc/scannow.

    -

    Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log. To do that click on start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools. Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.

    `

    When you get your system in good working condition, I invite you to back up your system up to an external hard drive and make it regular periodic updates.

    I hope this helps. Good luck.

    eBay and PayPal (both companies eBay) State they only use Internet Explorer as their official browser. When you view sites like the PayPal home page and some ads from sellers on eBay, the page is not formatted to display the entire page without having to scroll the width of the page to see the entire page.

    Also as a seller I've had trouble with my pictures not showing in Firefox. I've done some searching about this problem, and others have too. What I come up with is that its eBay only supporting Internet Explorer. I'm wondering if Firefox has a fix for this issue???
    

    I was at both sites without problem. The whole page is too big?
    Printing / photos? Have you tried to adjust the zoom settings?
