Ok, hit me over the head with a brick! problem solved - it wasn't a problem at all!
I'm using Microsoft's Remote Desktop Connection to use my macintosh to connect to the windows computer that i'm using for work (this way i don't need multiple monitors, i can run both machines with my 24" iMac screen which is quite nice)... well it is the RDC software that is displaying the white cursor that i've shown in the screen shot i posted before. when i go to the real windows box and open my app, the cursor is changing as expected. My apologies to all for getting so frustrated with Flex :) And my thanks for all who tried to help! At least i know the answer!
