ajax "loading" icon with UpdatePanel postbacks

Question

I have a form that is being dynamically built depending on user selection using Ajax (built in .NET Ajax with UpdatePanel).

how can I insert a "standard" ajax loading icon (maybe have it attached to the mouse pointer) while the postback is happening then remove it when the post back is finished?

I do have the AjaxToolKit installed if that helps.

thanks in advance.
