This version contains sounds for mousing activities, Big Biggies, and new animated and static medium-sized biggies.

Main Features: 

These features are common to all versions: 

  • The selection contains pointers, busy cursors, sizing arrows, and many others, some of which are animated.
  • Cursors are all in color.
  • Large, bold replacements for several other types of cursors such as the I-beam and the 'Wait' cursor (the watch on the Mac and the hourglass in Windows).
  • Both Mac OS 9 and Windows versions also have the following options:
    • QuickPoint: Jumps the cursor to the default button (such as OK, or Save) in a dialog box to save time.
    • ScreenWrap, to wrap the cursor around the screen; then it goes off one edge and will appear at the opposite edge. 
  • Windows features:
    • ButtonMouse, to move the cursor, perform left/right clicks, double clicks, and drags, all with 2 switches (buttons) only.
    • KeyMouse, to completely control mouse movement and button functions from the numeric keypad or IntelliKeys.
    • Automatically increases the size of window-sizing, double-headed arrows.
    • ClickLock, to lock down left or right button if held down long enough (may not work with all software).
    • PanicStopper 'freezes' your cursor if it senses erratic or very quick movement.
    • Built-in joystick capabilities that allow your joystick to control mouse and button actions.
