1. Disable pointer shadows.
2. Remove pointer trailers if activated.
3. Upgrade computer. J/k.

Do a virus scan just to be sure. What's your computer configuration? Mouse pointer hang can occur if the cpu is at 100% usage, or free ram is very low.

i think there is some problem withur machine.... check if there is any hardware conflict or if there is some problem in ur display adapter...if the driver is installed prorperly..... try moving ur cursor very fast...if u see trails ...then u r probably low in ram...and need to upgrade it....

I am also using optical usb mouse. But still sometime the mouse freezes. I have to restart my pc to set things right.
