Sometimes when cutting and pasting text from a web page, the "smart" highlighting grabs stuff I don't want it to grab. For Example:start here 'and select this text'but not this Using your mouse, start at the "a" in "and" on the previous line. Click and hold to start text highlighting, then move the mouse to the end
of the word text.
Can anyone explain why my icons look like this, the way the text is highlighted.I did a system restore and was fine but soon came back within minutes. Not a big problem more annoying.<A HREF="http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y270/thebaldebayer/icons.jpg">Screenshot here</A>

View 2 Replies View RelatedSome minor problems with my desktop interface. It really is minor, but it could be a sign of a greater problem. I don't know, so I'm asking. For one thing, my shortcut icon titles are always high-lighted. Always. If I single click on it the icon highlights as well. And also, my computer keeps trying to connect to broadband, which I don't have. It always fails, of course, but a notice saying it's trying to connect pops up every so often. When that notice is up, internet stops working. Once i click cancel, a connection comes back. I'm not sure if this is the right place, but I'll ask it anyway.
View 8 Replies View RelatedHello, I am new to this website, and need some serious help. I have a Gateway GT 5028 that is about a year a half old. I came home today to turn it on, and the only thing that happens is the fans both work, the cd drive lights come on, the power button light comes on, and the orange cpu light comes on. After a few seconds the cd lights flash again, and they repeat this process. The screen, keyboard, and mouse do not work. The monitor stays black the whole time. It has windows xp on it. I got it at Best buy, but it is out of warranty. It seems as if the computer continually restarts?
