    System Mouse Icon

    Is there a way to change the mouse icon for the whole system? I want to make the mouse icon turn into one that is flipping someone off every few seconds. Then I am going to use the SetCursorPos API to move the cursor around the screen like waving it in the user's face. A nice practical joke.

    You'll need this

    Public Declare Function SetSystemCursor Lib "user32" Alias "SetSystemCursor" (ByVal hcur As Long, ByVal id As Long) As Long
    Who needs rhetorical questions anyway?

    Can I use that with a custom cursor? I don't think there is an ID for a hand flipping you off...

    I'm sure...

    I may be mistaken but isnt there an API to return a handle to a cursor file? Well if there aint then I dunno.
