Mutt is one of the applications that I use that will make the mouse 
pointer turn solid
black.  Mutt and gvim both have the characteristic that when you press a 
key on the
keyboard, they hide the mouse pointer so that it is not blocking any of 
the window.
If you move the mouse, the mouse pointer will re-appear.  Unfortunately, 
when it
re-appears it is solid black.
