Okay, what's with the "unregistered" in that black box that says "resize" on it? Is that some kind of shareware you use?

i dont know it happens when i press cmd and option...( but the problem with the cursor never goes away unless in expose) and that shareware is called mondo mouse..( i had no clue that black box was from that tho)

I don't know it it's related either, but does the box go away if you (for now) disable it in Ssytem Preferences? There could be some incompatibility with 10.4.8, or the demo time could have expired.

Not off hand, but the black box did look kind of like something universal Access would do 🙁

Yeah, this doesn't look like any normal software feature.

fixed

RADe8 on the apple forums solved it by these steps...

"On ThinkSecret, Kichaka gave a solution to someone concerning this:

"Sys Preferences -> Universal Access -> Zoom Options -> uncheck 'Show preview rectangle when zoomed out.'"

I wouldn't have found that in a hundred years, myself.

Good luck! "

Thanks everyone for their concerns

Oh now I see! You only get the frame if maximum zoom is set to non-zero. What a quirky little feature.

Thanks for sharing the cause for the next time someone runs into this!
