- Call Mouse.hide() to hide mouse
- Attach movie clip that looks same as mouse at mouse coordinates (attach on stage)
- After 2 secs remove clip

Note: this will work only if flash size is same as whole page, if not user will move mouse (invisible mouse) out of flash onto non-flash background and browser will show cursor.

Best.

Why do you need to do this? It sounds kinda malicious.
