Did you set the cursor to the windows default before you uninstall?
Install, set the cursor to Windows default and uninstall.
See if that helps.

did you try disabling CXP while playing games?

default is ctrl+shift+c (toggles on and off)
WindowBlinds - Free yourself of the default settings, customize your desktop.

Set cursor back to default status, then try running The Zapper, then reboot, then try the games.

Not finding CursorXP using the scroll?

then you have no Stardock products installed?

run a cleaner like CCleaner (it free)


If CursorXP isn't there, and you're having troubles - it's not CursorXP
could be updates to you OS or other programs.

I'm not at home, but I seem to recall there should still be a list of products showing when you run the zapper.

Interesting.

CXP isn't showing in the list.

Logon Studio does.

methinks it's not CXP.
Start looking at virusor something else.
I'd also reccemmend that you install Process Monitor so you can see what's going on.
