Several days ago upon STARTUP everything comes up with
incorrect FONTS. Doesn't matter if on the DESKTOP, viewing
a webpage, etc. When I attempt to go under CONTROL PANEL,
DISPLAY, everything appears to be in an ARABIC FONT or
some diffecretnt font! I do not know what I am looking at,
as nothing is in a font I know. Even on STARTUP when the
WINDOWS LOGO is displayed the font looks like ARABIC!

Is this an indication that I was hit by a virus/worm or
something? Is this an indication that I need to do a
REFORMAT of the hiard drive and then reload W2K and all of
my applications? I am looking for any and all help.

Please send me an email with any help.

I am having the same problem. Cannot read any of my emails, cannot use most of my programs because the fonts have all been changed to symbols. Can copy fonts from my back up to fonts folder in Control Panel, but everytime I reboot fonts disappear again. Actually, I do not even have to reboot. Fonts seem to disppear overnight.

Did you ever figure out how to fix the problem?
