Hi
Right click on the screen and check Personalise.
In the Themes window it should say "Change Mouse Pointers on the left side of the screen.
Click Pointers Tab, and set up you pointers the way you want them and save it as a theme.
Mine just says "My Mouse".
The next time you switch themes just swich it back to your theme before you exit.
Maybe there is a setting someplace, I've seen complex ways of stopping the mouse from changing but I don't know of an easy fix.
Here is a complicated way of doing it.
