Most importantly, the backslash has been replaced by the yen symbol. This is only in one font, the one the my computer uses, and that default programs use. Another is that the plus/minus sign has been replaced. Please help, I'm sure there is someway of editting the character map. I want my backslash back! PS. Running Windows XP, IME inbuilt. The language is set to English at ALL TIMES.	Growly (6)
