After removing virus/spyware all my fonts look like wingdings font Please help!

[MMJII]

Hello All,
I have a Win xp home pc that was infected up the wahzoo.
I used AVG, Spybot, counterSPY, and Adaware6 to clean the pc. All the
popups, and BS went away the pc was functioning fine on the Internet. All
traces seemed removed. I did a final reboot after my last system scans witht
these apps, and now all my text that displays, shows up in what use like the
wingdins font. Does anyone know how to fix this.
thanks

Do you mean the Wazzu macro virus ?

What program declared "wahzoo" ?

Ad-Aware6 is no longer supported nor updated. It has been replaced with Ad-Aware SE v1.05.
I suggest obtaing Ad-Aware SE, updating its definitions and performing a deep scan ASAP !

Ad-aware SE (free personal version v1.05)

I bet you are also using an old version of SpyBot S&D as well.

If you have a font problem, you can Right-Click on the DeskTop and choose; Properties -->
appearance --> items
and reset the fonts. Tahoma and Verdana are good fonts.
