I have this annoying problem where my cursor on a select few documents comes up as the cursor shown in this picture:
How do I change this? I have a brooding suspicion that this is a Windows feature problem.
I would like to add that this happened after a friend of mine messed about with the Windows features, such as magnify.

How do I get rid of the annoying block cursor highlighter?
The above is the clue to solving your problem.
Please check your "Ease of Access" settings:
Goto:
Control Panel
>Ease of Access Center
>Make the computer easier to see
>Set the thickness of the blinking cursor
.Make sure it is set to
1
.Notes:
The instructions might be slightly different for Windows 8.
When it set to
20
I see the same block cursor that you do.
