How do I get rid of hand pointer in Ie7

Since I installed Ie7 last week I have this annoying hand pointer when I go
on the web. I have tried using control, mouse, resetting for the default
arrow to no avail. Other than using Ie7 the arrow pointer is present for
other computer uses. How do I get rid of the hand and restore the arrow
mouse pointer in Ie7. My operating system is Windows Pro which is up to
date, and I am using the Microsoft intelli mouse wireless explorer which has
the current software installed.

Are you running WinXP SP2 or SP3, Mike?

I had to get rid of IE7Pro. Too many of its components fail or cause
problems under IE8. There were too many problems with it even back
under IE7. Yeah, it had crash recovery but then it also caused more
crashes. Nice product but the authors waste too much time on non-
essential features and should instead focus on stability and
compatibility.
