Bizarre Web Page Behavior

[Treeskier]

Immediately after I had a technician come out to the house to check the
cable line speed (because I was barely crawling even to get online) my
msnbc.msn.com web page (Homepage) became an exploded view! Most of the
text is so big, one sentence takes up a couple/three lines...other text is
blue rather than black...some text is normal. None of the settings have
been changed and I've checked on other computers and none are experiencing
this behavior....It is ONLY this one web page on this computer...my
homepage. No other web pages display incorrectly at all!!!!!!!

Now, the only things that I think might have happened on that day other than
the tech checking the line was a failed Java update and I had a windows
update that failed twice before finally installing. I've checked the Java
and it says it is updated? The windows update is there...and the technician
says he didn't change a thing...

What could cause just one web page on one computer to behave in such a
manner...other than being designated as my homepage it is no different than
any other web page??? I've removed it as my homepage and tried to bring it
up from the web but it still displays abnormally no matter what I've tried
so far...ran all the spyware removers as well...

Any help will be most appreciated......Thanks

First...thanks for answering in "another" newsgroup...
As usual I was reluctant to ask a question on these newsgroups because
people are "constantly" rebuffed for trying to get help!!!!!!
I posted in "another" newsgroup in case someone wasn't connected to "this"
newsgroup...(makes every bit of sense and prudence)
There was no need to waste your time and anyone else's scolding me in this
group for a "double post" unless it was in the same newsgroup...
Please ...people...if you are here to help and want to help...thank you. The
PC challenged thank you...
If you're here to manage and sensor...don't waste our time!!!!!!

Sorry Andy...having a rough day..."I" should have keep my mouth shut.
Forgive my previous scolding....thanks
My problem disappeared on it's own as mysteriously as it appeared 3 days
ago..
Thanks again for the post in the other newsgroup

Thats ok Treeskier, you will find the main people that answer questions in
the XP newsgroups actually check them all, so your post will be answered if
you post once or five times.

Sometimes I can't solve all problems but someone else can and its nice to
follow the post from beggining to end and when you do multiple posts its hard
to follow and see what eventually solved the problem.
