getting a random cursor in my chrome browser

I noticed this cursor appearing in my browser the other day, very strange as i dont remember enabling it.

Example:

I kinda forgot about it, but then decided to google it. 

Apparently its an accessibility setting called "Navigate pages with a text cursor", maybe they turned this on by default for some reason. but you can just toggle it off to "fix" it. 

Just go here:

Chrome Settings

Chrome Settings ​​-> Advanced -> Accessibility 

Just toggle that one off, it auto saves the setting so you can just close the settings window, which should fix the issue. 

Update: i think the reason this was happening was due to the F7 shortcut... must have pressed that sometime.
