Computer question (AGAIN)

[Liza]

Okay, this has never happened to me before. I was just typing on here and all of a sudden all of the fonts on the webpage just became huge. It's not just on this site, it's on every internet page I pull up. What did I do? How can I fix it? It's getting really annoying, really quickly

Go to View > Text size > smaller or medium, whichever you prefer.

My browser is different, but in one of the menus at the top, it should say something about font size. It's probably not on medium anymore, so just change it back and things should be normal.

Oooo....That's spyware you've got there. Download Adaware, then once you install it and run it, click on "Check for updates" and after you do this, run it...that should take care of it, then you'll be able to set it back to your original homepage.

(do all of this if you haven't installed Adaware...if you already have it on your computer, just check for updates then run it.)

Okay, I've got another one

What do you do when a program just decides it doesn't want to work anymore? My sound recorder that came installed on my computer's just pooped out. Every time I open it, it appears in my task panel (minimized at the bottom) but doesn't show up on my screen. In other words, it thinks it's open, but it ain't. Any way I can fix that?

reinstall it through Add/Remove Programs > Windows Setup in the Control Panel, if that doesnt work,
try run it in Safe Mode to see if there is something else running in the background that is conflicting with it, if there is,
hit Ctrl-Alt-Delete to open the Task Manager and start closing programs and trying to open Sound Recorder, or
go to the Run command on the Start Menu, type in msconfig then start disabling things on the Startup tab until you find the one that is causing the problem.... (you will have to reboot each time if you use msconfig)
then see if there are any answers on that programs website
another thing to try would be to update or reinstall your sound card drivers
