windows 7 - My mouse icon is messed on my computer


My mouse cursor has decided to randomly display what appears to be half an 'X' whenever the resize window cursor is displayed. I have circled it in red in this image. It is driving me nuts! I am always misclicking because of it. It is cross application. I see it in everything from Chrome to a report editor.


Oddly, I took a screenshot with 'cursors on.' But the artifact is not included! So I had to take a picture with my phone.


Windows 7 64. Relatively new install (three months old or so). Any ideas how to fix/remove it?

I found that by uninstalling Synaptics mouse software for my laptop's touchpad via Add/Remove programs fixed the issue. I am very happy.
