Missed animated mouse cursor in IE5

I have IE5. 01 +SP1 in Win2000+SP1 but somehow i missed animated hourglass mouse cursor while a web page renders itself. I must move the mouse cursor on toolbar to see it as hourglass, otherwise it became the simple known arrow.

You just need to change your cursors
 
click Start -> Settings -> Control Panel
double click the Mouse icon
click the Pointers tab
Choose a new set of cursors from the dropdown that includes an animated hourglass
click OK
 
I like the 3D White scheme personally.

OP
Bursar hi,
 
Thanks for your answer but this is not such problem. I have activated animated cursors from mouse control panel. The problem is that when mouse cursor is on web page contents and when i click a link it stays as arrow not as hourglass. When i move cursor over the toolbar it became a hourglass while the page is loading but not when mouse is over tha actual page.

That's just how IE works. It won't give you the Ani.Cursor until it thinks you might leave.
