Well xeyes always looks in the direction of the mouse pointer, so if you ever wonder where it is, there it is. I've been running it at startup, and the only issue is that it gets covered up at times.
As for the spider, I had one for the Amiga once like that, but it was a worm or a snail or something. There was something nefarious about it too, don't recall what it was. Maybe it ate or stole the pointer if it caught up to it, or something. I had a virus one time the reversed the direction of movement. Turning the mouse upside down thwarted that too well, but I decided to use it as-is for a while. Like a Dvorak keyboard, or inverting lens glasses, it would've been just fine if I didn't have to use a computer at work.
