    Hi guys, I havent posted in a while but this morning I logged on my computer and in several spots there are "Squares" where there used to be letters. It on several webpages that it wasnt on yesterday.

    It was also on my adaware program that I ran eliminating 7 components. I also ran Spybot search and destry and eliminated 15 more. I emptied all my old cookies and temporary internet files and these squares still show up here and there. Its not a huge problem but I want to get rid of it.

    I also ran CW Screadder and it said my system was clean. Any suggestions?

    This would be a "font" issue. Did you change any dispplay properties? Have you rebooted since you noticed this?

    What can I do to get rid of it though?


    The letters C and J are squares.

    Try going into Display Properties and look to see if you're using any different/weird looking fonts.
