Vista: Elevated programs' windows cause mouse to disappear.

When moving between PCs

from Stardock Forums
When trying to move between two Vista computers, the mouse will disappear and not go to the secondary machine if an elevated window is active. It will return and act normal again if a non-elevated window is activated. I would like to buy this product, but I need to know if there is a workaround for this issue.

What happens if you close Multiplicity on the primary and then reopen it again as admin?

If the cursor is invisible when I do it, it stays that way. I have to use the mouse control panel to make it appear again.
When I do restart Multiplicity, the behavior is the same.

I am currently having this same problem running the latest beta of 1.21. I am running Vista Ultimate x64 on primary, XP SP2 on 2nd and 3rd computers.

All I have to do to get the mouse back is to press the Windows key. But as soon as I come back to the primary, the cursor hides again.

Starting Multiplicity with Run as administrator fixes the problem, but that means I have to remember to stop and restart it each time I reboot.. But it at least it does fix the problem!
