 This reminded me of a issue I had a while back where our program started crashing (seemingly randomly) for certain customers, reporting a kernel32 error, and going through the whole gamut of reporting to MS, yada, yada... The behavior could not be reproduced on our end and plagued those users for many months until we were able to narrow it down to a rogue dll, not installed by us, but by another software vendor. Somehow, not always, and with no discernible pattern, this rogue library was being pulled into the stack.  Replacing that dll with a newer version corrected the problem, until that vendor pushes another update, then we have to do it all over again! Sounds like job security to me!

Is "CommitStrip" the new "Usefriendly[^]" carton?
I'd rather be phishing!

For me, yes. Altough Commit Strip didn't make it to Antartica yet...

Win 8.1/64, all latest updates installed.
Suddenly, the standard arrow-cursor appear to be "lit from within" with its own little fluorescent light in all applications.
I didn't change any of my system-settings to my knowledge. I am using Start8, but haven't installed an update in a long-time.
Is this a sign of demonic infestation ?
thanks, Bill

Depends what colour it is:
If the light is Red, it's either Demonic Possesion, or you have been looking at too many Pr0n sites.
If it's Blue, then the police / NSA have remoted in to your PC and are trawling your files.
If it's Green, then your PC is busy growing some new RAM.
Combination shades mean that more than one of these is occuring at the same time.

Hmm, "you can take the red pill or the blue pill" its up to you....

Hmm... the Blue pill is the one with an "E" embossed on it, the Red pill looks like an Asprin dunked in food colouring...tricky...

Give the blue one to your cat, and take the read on yourself.

A cat on "E"? Not a pretty thought, Dreamies cat biscuits[^] have him running round the room like a loon. I suspect they contain "Cat Cocaine"...

The only thing that made our previous cat a bit nutty was mussels. However, I know how mussels taste, but that cat biscuits, can I persuade you to try one?

No.

I do however wonder about their sales pitch, crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside? Who is that information for really? Is the cat going to see it and go mental, or is it just that you can hear your cat eat? 
|

I think it's supposed to imply that it's good for their teeth. Or something.
I doubt if the cat would be interested based on that, given that mice and birds tend to be the other way round. Mind you, he does eat beetles, so...

I was also thinking of a pill that is both blue and starts with the letter V. Im not sure the effect is the same, in fact, It might be complete opposite.

I confirm his cursor light is Red.

That settles it.
I'm not getting Windows 8.1

Have you changed your meds recently?
Just saying.

Sounds like you may have accessibility setting turned on - think WindowsKey-Enter to change settings
don't have a Windows box here to try it out - so I may be enunciating through my lower orifice.

Um, you know those web-sites that say it's OK to eat food that's got mould on it?

Just proves Cursors are evil.
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.
