    I need help please if I can describe the problem correctly.

    As you are looking at your screen right now, in the upper right corner there is the - to send to task bar, squares to minimize or enlarge image, and then a large red X to delete.

    On my screen I can't see these. The type runs off the screen as I type also. I am working w/Windows XP 2005.

    As you note also the lettering w/some letters comes out wider than others.

    What is going on?

    I appreciate your help.

    Wish I could help, Juni. I have no idea. But there are many here who will have you going in two shakes is my guess.

    Thanks Jeff! I know IP_SEC is one of the computer guys, but I didn't want to PM him quite yet cause he may be out of town or what ever.

    Keep your sanity w/those little ones!!

    Can you still see the clock on the right hand end of the task bar or is the entire screen off the edge?

    Wish I knew what's going on with your computer, juni. Do you have virus protection? Have you tried rebooting?

    No clock Ballistic - off the screen. I have to move my cursor off screen and keep clicking away in the "dark" for it to work.

    Yes I have 2 spyware systems Luna and have rebooted. This started last night.

    what browser are you using? Internet Explorer? Firefox?

    try scanning for spyware with one of the TOP anti-spyware products on the market...

    also - check your screen resolutions

    does this happen on all applications or just the Browser?

    Well in that case there's 2 things it could be, but most likely it's not your computer at all, but someone's been fiddling with the buttons on the monitor and moved "the screen" across. Unfortunately how you correct this varies from monitor to monitor and may take a bit of trial and error.

    I would try this first.

    I've never heard of spyware causing this kind of problem.
