On my home computer Firefox comes up and after about 30 seconds all the words on the display look like 'cuss' words in a cartoon. I deleted Firefox and reinstalled-didn't help.

The words are mostly not readable.

I had McAfee run a scan for viruses - didn't find any.

Someone told me my bitmap was screwed up. I don't know what that is.

The pictures look fine - you just can't read the words under them.

I have run programs like Glary that supposedly fixes various problems with the registry and start up files - didn't help.

I have shut down the computer and restarted it several times - didn't help.

Can you attach a screenshot?

Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed the maximum file size (1 MB).

I'm sorry.

I tried several times yesterday and to day to get a screen print of the Firefox home page. I even got it to print out but I couldn't get the scanner at work to scan it. Oh well...

Any the words look like this:

!@#%^&'the !@#$%^&'top !@#$%^&'Romney !@#$%^'retakes

Does that help at all?
