For some reason, any address bar on my computer goes: "------" automatically, even my MSN Messenger and IE. I try to replace it with a website name, but it automatically goes ----------- right back. How do I fix this and what's the cause. This happened right after my computer rebooted itself.

^ Totally agreed.
Get Opera. Or at least Firefox. IMO, Opera is the best browser there is. I wouldn't know what the cause is because I've never had that problem before, but try clearing your cache and see what happens. Try playing around with the internet options too. |

^ But you can adjust the security settings to solve that problem..
IE7's text is extremely blurry. And I don't like how the toolbars aren't versatile. They caught on to the tabbed browsing too late. Eh. Lately, I've just been hating anything by Microsoft.. |

That problem happened in every area I could enter text.
Google Search Bar, Firefox, Writing E-mails, etc.. I searched for viruses, spyware and keylogs, didn't find anything and afterwards it would restart on its own.

^ Sorry to inform you, but he is correct. PC > Mac. Anyways, we have plenty of thread going on about that topic so post in those and stay on topic please!
I've never heard of this issue. I searched Google but didn't find anything that wasn't already stated. Try contacting you ISP or whoever makes your computer. |
