Vanishing Pointer

Question

My pointer keeps disappearing at random intervals. First when I hover over the buttons at the top right, then eventually over the entire page until it returns for a moment. It is odd. Although I do not see the pointer, the buttons are active and their 'over' state is visible and I only have this problem with Safari which I have reinstalled using my Mac OSX Disk.
Please help,
Stephen.

Hello Stephen,
Welcome to  Discussions: )
Since this happens on Web page windows only, then more likely then not it is the way the page is coded, this has certainly happened to me at some sites, with different os & mac models.
It is almost as if the pointer slips under the buttons on the left of the page where the back & forward buttons are or other locations of the window as well.
Post the site when you notice so we may try to see if the same happens .
To try to workaround this I made my curser a little larger, as opposed to the default size it is,
System preferences-> Universal access->Mouse Trackpad->
For difficulties see the Curser, using the slider.
I do not think anything is wrong with your Safari or computer.
