okay, so i have a macbook with 10.4.11 with all the latest updates and junk. i use firefox because greasemonkey makes things very convenient. but i noticed something while i was browsing through myspace bulletins.
 see, the letters are all spaced out and whatnot. it's f*cking irritating. it only does this when i view myspace bulletins or picture captions. everything else is fine. people tell me that they don't have any problems, so i'm just guessing there's something wrong on my end. it hasn't been a problem before, and it's only myspace that i'm facing these problems with. and here's what i've done: -re-installed firefox -restarted computer -tried to get used to safari. none of these worked. help? ): and no, i'm not switching back to a p.c. haha. |

um, okay. i'm no n00b.
evidently, you're the n00b because if you wanted to get help, you would state your problem in the correct place, which means you would get better help if you posted a new thread. posting about anti-virus programs in a thread about macs probably isn't going to get you far. |

i'm just going to stop replying to you because you're not even worth the time and plus, if i reply back to you, you're just going to say some random ass shit that doesn't even make any f**king sense. so consider yourself retarded if you reply back to me.

Do you still have this problem? It's weird because this has NOT happened to me, even when I'm on mac os x leopard or windows vista. I still see things normally. |

Perhaps it's some settings that are conflicting? IDK, that's the only thing I can think of, because you can go to options and change the font to something else, or the font size.. ? But I don't know if that will change anything though, as it might only change normal texts. Ack sorry I can't really explain this well.

Yeah the only issue i encounter with firefox and myspace is my music on my profile doesnt play (i have the player hidden) and it wont play any songs on sites that are hidden.
But on IE my music works. |
