| 384756 | 2005-08-31 01:08:00 | Hi,can anyone please help me? there is something wrong with my internet and i have no idea what.Im not a computer person so i dont know where to look for the problem.It seems i cannot delete mails in my yahoo email account,when i want to go to a link from an email the page comes up as blank white,the text on my browser page is much larger than it was before,some windows when i open it up does not show the icons till i have to manually view them and i think some colors are missing from my internet pages because most of the web pages come up as mostly white.PLEASE HELP ANYONE!!!!! | boohsv (8804) | ||
| 384757 | 2005-08-31 01:19:00 | Mostly white or mostly white with black text such as page not found etc? You've scanned for spyware/viruses etc? |

| 384758 | 2005-08-31 02:23:00 | Just mostly white,with some of the colors a web site would originaly come with.Ive scanned for spyware and adware but not virus yet,would i have to? | boohsv (8804) | ||
| 384759 | 2005-08-31 02:32:00 | Yes I'd do a full virus scan, see what comes up. Could maybe your display adaptor driver is on the way out. I had a wierd rendering of web pages problem and updating the driver fixed it. You can find out through control panel / system / device manager look for "display adaptor' note what it is then go the the manufactuters sites to download a new driver. Sounds a bit scary but once you've done it the mystery dissappers. (Provided it all works right) HTH........m | mark c (247) | ||
| 384760 | 2005-08-31 02:47:00 | Well,ive just downloaded an updated driver yesterday because my display settings could not go higher than 640 by 480 16 color.Everything on my desktop was huge.I fixed that problem than ended up with this problem. | boohsv (8804) | ||
| 384761 | 2005-08-31 03:01:00 | So the problem with the "white pages" only started after you updated the driver? And too big size.........I'd have a look in the display from right clicking on the desktop. And what's the answer to bartsdadhomer's Q? | mark c (247) | ||
| 384762 | 2005-08-31 03:12:00 | no,ive had this problem before i updated.i scanned for adware-nothing found,spyware-1 found,got that removed but i cant scan for virus because my norton antivirus window when opened all the information that usually is shown is not there anymore,,the window is completely blank. | boohsv (8804) | ||
| 384763 | 2005-08-31 03:33:00 | Sounds like a virus has disabled your AV. Have a look at this FAQ......... pressf1.pcworld.co.nz 16 and see if you can do an online scan. HTH.........m |
