Solve : Internet Exployer Graphic symbols above the address bar?

Answer»

I believe that perhaps I wanted to increase some speed and there were so many fonts that I never ever use and just will not use so I READ SOMEWHERE to delete what you do not need and that will speed up the computer and it did.

Do you think that is why I have this anomoly above the address bar? I thought I was somehow using another country like asia for there internet exployer but it does work and it is in english.

I have a picture in additional options

[recovering disk space -- attachment deleted by admin]Is this only on your browser or does the title bar of other applications also have weird characters now?Every single page that I went to where internet exployer would be showed the funny characters.

But here's what happened. I restarted the computer and it fixed itself so I am going to leave it at that and just observe.

Just curious, how many fonts do you now have? I have 286 in my Win XP comp. That's seems like a very high number. I may use patio's link to do some TRIMMING.

Edit: Well, after reading this, How Many Windows Fonts is Too Many and What Can I Do About It?, maybe 286 isn't so many.Well, everything is back to normal now and I have perhaps 6-10 fonts of my favorite and that is enough. I used no special program to delete the many that I did but it ok now. Lets face it you don't need 300 fonts.

thefonzArgh, just use firefox, it is much more um,,,, shall I say "user0friendly"? It's just better, take my word for it. Yea!! I like firefox also. Hey!! Go to my other topic about IE7 and firefox problem with YouTube.

Who said you did? Anyway, if you stripped your system down to only 6-10 fonts, you went way OVERBOARD with this.
