A lot of folks would say that the fix is to delete the script. Nowadays, I might agree. However, there was a time . . .
Anyways, I found this in my archives. The script is now external (right click and 'save as'):

Here's an example page using it. Notice the highlighted stylesheet. It's required, but can be external and/or added to an existing sheet for the page:
Code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Elastic Trail Script</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<style type="text/css">
.dot {
position: fixed;
}
#dot0 {
visibility: hidden;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript" src="elastic_trail.js">

Note: Although the stylesheet uses position: fixed; the script will detect IE versions that don't support that and will compensate accordingly.
