    I have two WindowsXP virtual machines. On the first machine, I open any application (eg WordPad) that accepts keyboard input. I get an Ibeam cursor (normal). When I start typing the Ibeam disappears (normal), but when I stop typing and move the mouse, the Ibeam pointer does not reappear (broken). No amount of mouse activity or mouse clicks will bring it back. Worse, the cursor is gone for good in all applications include the Mac host (YIKES). I can press the alt key or the command (windows key) and the cursor reappears.

    On the second machine, I can type (cursor disappears) and when I move the mouse, the cursor reappears (normal).

    Ideas?
