cursor

After recently re-installing, i went through every System Setting and choose exactly how i wanted everthing to be.

Except one thing.

I'd never seen the Show Cursor on CTRL value before, and wanted to know what it was like. After a while it was simply annoying, whenever i paste of cut in chrome it takes the focus off of the text before i can press V.

I have been through eveything in System Settings and can't find it again to disable it.

How do i set CTRL not to pulse around the cursor?

I will be happy with directions in System Settings, Ubuntu Tweak, or GConf.
