Step 1
Find a Free Cursor Site
There are dozens of websites online that offer free MySpace cursor codes that anyone can use. Any legitimate free cursor site will not require you to sign up for an account or download anything to use their free cursors.
You can find free MySpace cursor codes at the URL below:

Step 2
Copy and Paste the Code into Your Profile
When you have found a cursor you want to use, copy the code for the cursor by highlighting the entire code to your clipboard by holding Control + A, the Control + C. Then, log in to your MySpace profile and click on Profile on the toolbar at the top of the page, and select the second option, Edit Profile.
You will be brought to a section where you can edit different parts of your profile. Choose the "Personal Info" tab (which should display by default) and scroll down to "About Me." At the very top of your "About Me" section, paste the cursor code you previously copied for the cursor you want to use. Click "Save Changes," and you have successfully changed your MySpace cursor. -
Step 3
Use CSS to Change Your MySpace Cursor
If you have your own custom cursor that you want to use on your MySpace profile, you can use CSS to do so. If you don't already have a stylesheet, first start with an opening and closing style tag before adding any CSS code:
< style type="text/css" >
< /style >
(To use these tags, you MUST remove the spaces after and before the < > symbols.)

Step 4
Below is the code to change your MySpace cursor with CSS. Either add this to your stylesheet, or in between the opening and closing style tags (above):
a:link {
cursor: url('http://www.path.com/to/cursor.cur');
}
body {
cursor: url('http://www.path.com/to/cursor.gif'), auto;
cursor: url('http://www.path.com/to/cursor.cur');
}
You will need to change the URL to your cursor ( http://www.path.com/to/") and the filename for your cursor (cursor.cur and cursor.gif). You will need both a cursor file and a GIF file for your cursor to use this code. The CSS code will change your cursor in both Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox browsers.
