Cursor issues?!

[ZikChil]

Has anyone gotten the "cursor display freezes but I can still click objects (including context menu) but in order to get my cursor back I have to reboot the box" problem?

This one is so annoying it makes the game unplayable.

This issue appears to be Bink related. I did not notice anything specific previously because it always seemed to "freeze" randomly. Sometimes at the very beginning (when opening game but after load) or at any point during play - until yesterday. I clicked an opponent leaders name in the bottom right to start diplomacy and as soon as the window popped - cursor froze.

Thoughts?
Thanks - Zik

Could you <alt><tab> out from the game? If so, do you regain control of the mouse?

If <alt><tab> doesn't work, <ctrl><alt><delete> should work.
