[font=Comic Sans MS]Hello All,

Trying to figure out why the mouse trail code works fine in Netscape, but does not respond well in IE.  
My objective is to create a transparent movie clip for my webpage.  
In IE, the object or text I want to use, only moves in one direction. Changing the speed does not help.  
I have used the following codes from the links below, to no avail using Internet Explorer(only).

[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/followease.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/followease.htm)

When I follow these links the examples shown work fine using both web browsers.

Thanks for your help in advance.
