Hi Judy...Unfortunately the cursors don't go directly into the CursorXP program like it does with WindowBlinds. When you download a cursor it will most likely been in zip format. What you need to do is rename the extension .zip to .CurXPTheme, don't unzip the file because it will just unload everything into the folder you have it in and you'll end up just having to delete it all and start over.

To rename you file you will need to be able to see your extension names. To do this go to ->ControlPanel -> Folder Options -> View -> and then uncheck "Hide extensions for known file types" -> Apply. Then you will see the .zip extension and you can then rename it. After you've done that you can left click that file and it will install the Cursor to your CursorXP themes folder and then you can delete the one you clicked on.

Ummm.... actually they will if you use FireFox. want's to open with CursorXPThemefile (default) and then automatically applies it. Well, unless they were uploaded as zip or even harder theme within a theme.

Hmmm....I must be lucky because when using the Wincustomize Browser for downloading all I have to do is highlight the download and right click on it, select install and it installs the download into the proper program folder.
