I would look at the cursor-color setting into .gtkrc-2.0. It probably has a theme in which the cursor color matches the background. Did you try to adjust colors in the Preferences for Mozilla? Try playing with the settings in Preferences/Appearance/Color, maybe set a black background and see if the cursor appears. Or change gtkrc theme( google for gtk2 themes)

Hi,
I'm not a Red-Hat Linux fan, but this is not important... and besides this is a lil' off-topic, let me try...
First, if you need help, you need to provide more information, like, what window manager, package versions, etc.
Sometimes this problems are because of a bad configuration setting, one way to test it, is creating a new user, say 'luser' or 'peter' or whatever you want to call it, then doing a login and start the apps. if you don't experience this problem, then it's something with the configuration, otherwise it could be a problem with a/some package installed or missing. If it's something with the configuration, and easy way to solve it, is removing the configuration directory/files of the app., and, usually you end up removing also the directory of the window manager...
Hope this can help you in some way. But, with the lack of information, I can't tell more...

could some guru guide me to some good basic tutorial on programming Thunderbird/Mozilla? I'm assuming you mean adding extentions? I know of none off-hand, yet I see plenty from a google search on the subject; try finding some fairly recent ones there.
