Darn, Arris beat me to it, I was going to say reduce the size of your signature, but Arris already did ;)

Anyways, I poked around in the Registry a bit to see if I could find where the default scheme is kept and so far I haven't found anything, but if I do, I'll let you know. I think I may have found something, let me just check it out a bit more.

Okay, here is a tutorial I found based on what I found in the Registry (and by searching Google) and I don't have time to test this so see if it works for you.

Hehe, yep! ;)

I believe this is a per-user setting which can be changed in the registry in HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-XX-XXXXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXXX-XXX\Control Panel\Cursors. If no user is logged in yet it loads the settings from HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT where you can also change the cursor scheme in HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Cursors. If you Export that key from a user which uses the Aero cursors, open the exported .reg file in notepad, find/replace S-1-5-XX-XXXXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXXX-XXX by .DEFAULT and import it you 'll get the Aero cursors at logon screen.

Good luck!

Arris
