Internet explorer ---> Weird text/edit box problem

Internet explorer ---> Weird text/edit box problem
Sun, 23 Mar 2008 11:42:01 -070
Hello,

Since this morning I have a weird problem with forums and site's like hyves.
I can't see the edit box where you can insert text or the text that I typed. 
Already reinstalled IE but it doesn't worked. And I already contacted the 
website but they say no one else has the problem. So please help!!

[x-post to IE General]

What anti-virus application or security suite is installed?  What 
anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)?  What third-party firewall 
(if any)?

=======================

1. Does this behavior persist if you start IE7 in No Add-ons mode?  To start 
IE7 in No Add-ons mode:

Right-click on the blue IE desktop icon and select Start without Add-ons; or

Start > (All) Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Internet
Explorer (No 
add-ons).

Troubleshooting and Internet Explorer’s (No Add-ons) Mode:
http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2006/07/25/678113.aspx

2. Does the problem persist if you Reset IE7 Settings (RIES)?
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737 <= Read before using!

3. If you uninstall (a) IE7 (which automatically returns you to IE6), (b) 
all toolbars and (c) all third-party Windows Themes (including Window 
Blinds) and do NOT reinstall IE7, does this behavior persist?  If it does, 
do NOT reinstall IE7.

http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2006/10/11/IE7-Installation-and-Anti_2D00_Malwa
re-Applications.aspx

4. Required reading IMHO before reinstalling IE7:

Sandi's Installation Tips <= FOLLOW THESE TIPS TO THE LETTER!
http://www.ie-vista.com/known_issues.html#pre-install

I strongly recommend using 
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/ie/getitnow.mspx as the 
installation source, not Automatic/Windows Update.

Tip: Save the installer to your desktop, do not Run it.

Make *certain* that you check in at Windows Update immediately after 
reinstalling IE7 to install any critical updates offered.  If Optional 
Updates category offers Root Certificates update, I recommend installing it 
to take full advantage of IE7's additional security.
