Odd bug, possibly cursor related.

This is an odd bug that just started showing up for no apparent reason about an hour ago. Here's a screenshot since it will probably be the best way to explain it.

That little square with the ap in it just started showing up for no reason. It seems like its related to the cursor as it appears wherever the cursor is. If I open up the console and close it the square goes away, but if I have noCursor = "0" in the playGui it will show up again once I move the mouse.

Anybody seen this kind of error before?

Huh, I just realized that the screenshot got downsized when I posted it. That probably made it hard for anyone to see what was happening in it. Oh well.

I actually figured it out after some trial and error. It would appear that this isn't a bug but was actually a tooltip. I had made the GuiShapeNameHud invisible and it would seem that when doing this it causes the mouse to detect a tooltip on the playGui by default. So I just commented out everything in the playGui that had the string "ap" and that took care of the problem.
