This post describes how to change the cursor on hover over a custom scrollbar in a textarea in CSS.

Steelseries Sensei Ten squeaky scroll wheel

In this post I describe how I fixed my Steelseries Sensei Ten squeaking scroll wheel. Cause This issue occurred whenever I scrolled down (towards me) with slight pressure to the left on the mouse scroll wheel. Resolution I resolved this issue by removing the pads from the bottom of the mouse to access the screws.  I then used a small Phillips head screwdriver to remove the screws.  I noticed that the bar going through the mouse wheel was just catching the bottom edge of a circuit board if I put pressure to the left on the mouse scroll wheel.  I very carefully applied a small amount of WD-40 onto the bar and the bottom of the circuit board where it was touching.  The squeaking sound on my Steelseries Sensei Ten mouse has now stopped when I scroll.
