Since you describe that the problem not only occours in Word, but in your browser as well, I think this may either be a ressource problem or some kind of malware on your machine.

Try disabling/stopping all Software that runs on the machine and check whether or not your system is busy. This is normally shown in Taskmanager - if your CPU is used at 100%, it may explain why it seems to freeze your cursor. (Even short spikes on 100% can be an indicator...)

If its not a ressource problem, your machine might be infected with malware. Please update and scan your machine completely (depending on your AntiVirus Software you can do an offline-Scan as well.)

Try change in control panel -> mouse -> pointer options and untick hide pointer when typing

Hi Thank all of you for your reply. @liorkr, i tried it, but it did not work.
@Smighty, the CPU utility is not high, maybe some virus problem
@ duncanb7, so far, i think your way is right. i need to try and wait for a while after shutting down some software.
