HELP - why is text centered on all pages I view?

E

erwin

Sorry if this issue is already covered but I can't seem to find it
anywhere. Perhaps I had a virus about a week ago but when I log on as
myself and view any web page, all text is centered within each table
row. I've read about css, style sheets, etc in this NG but can't seem
to pin down my problem. When I logon as another user though, web
pages are viewed with the text left-justified within each column. I
have IE6, XP Pro. Thanks in advance.

Can you remember the name of the trojan/virus, I suspect some parasite as
many have the same problem.

Sounds like "Use my Style Sheet" ......
Internet Options | General [tab] | Accessibility [button]
Any options selected there? Note: by default all 4 should be unchecked.

Thanks, that worked. The fourth, "Use my style sheet" was checked as
you'd guessed. The style sheet was system.css - don't know if that's
a standard style sheet when clicking that option or if a virus dropped
it in there.

I believe the virus was called, "backdoor.hazzer". Basically it's a
porn downloader - gotta love those.

Anyway, thanks.
