Problem:

I have just clicked my right mouse button to acknowledge a pop-up
message and my mouse cursor has disappeared. I had just clicked my
right mouse button before for another operation.

Note: This also occurs when you hit any button on the three button
Logitech mouse.

Response:

To get your mouse cursor back again, redraw the screen with the "@"
command.
