    squeaner,
    believe it or not, this site, major geeks.com, one example is :-

    User CP FAQ Members List Calendar NEW! Arcade New Posts Search Quick Links Log Out

    i have copied and pasted the above onto here, but on my screen this just shows as a series of small squares i cannot read it as it appears on screen, until i pasted it onto this message, all the other text on the page is ok

    do you think its something in my browser my settings


    thanks john d.

    Does this block problem only occur in Internet Explorer?

    Hi squeaner,

    it seems to have been in i.e. mostly but also in some word docs(ones that have been sent to me so i suppose you could say that i.e. was involved,

    however i followed some tips about regsvr32......dll's from one of the forums and it seems to be sorted, for the time being, anyway, so thanks again for the help, and i'll be in touch if it re-occurs.

    ....john.d.
