Here is my idea for a cursor if anyone is interested
with the magic stars appearing on the clicks or when you come across a link or something
even a rainlender and Sysmetrix themes would definitely add to the "magic"

The second hand doesn't move and the time on the clock doesn't change, except when I right click on the clock and it shows the "Close/About/Autorun" menu.
While this menu is visible, the second hand ticks happily away.

Do you have the latest version of Theme Manager? The suite will apply with this program. Of course you will also need Windowblinds 6 and IconPackager 3.2 OR the entire Object Desktop package for the suite to work.
Hope this helps,
