My comp is running weird and the exit button's look fake
 

So,

as of just a few minutes ago I rebooted my comp.. was running oddly slow,

now my exit buttons on every form look fake/altered.

Basically they don't look like the should in Vista, perhaps I've been jacked up?

Any advice?

sounds potentially gnarly..

Right click on desktop ---> properties ---> click on your theme again ---> click apply ---> problem solved

not sure why this error occurs but I have run into it before

There really isn't much to see,

except the minimize, maximize, and exit buttons on ALL of my forms are about half there normal size.. that and my shit is running all fucked up,

taking 5 seconds to type in a text field, or for the cursor to show up.

God damn bullshit.

also, upgrade to xp

run the virus scan here http://www.kaspersky.com/virusscanner you can also download the free trial. Kaspersky is the best virus scanner on the market.

also go to Microsft and Microsoft Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

Leave GFY before you infect us all!!!

I have tried loads of programs when I have had the unresponsive/hanging computer problem and these two programs worked great for killing trojans and fixing other nasty stuff that gets into the registry -

format c:/

This shit seems to be working pretty well,

I really don't want to have to format.

Look at Windows Task Manager in the Processes tab and order the list by CPU usage. See if something is freaking out.

malwarebytes ftw

Your PC has been jacked...

try a system restore go back a few weeks if you can..
try removing spyware (etc..) in safe mode well unplugged from the internet..
you can also try

IE in safe mode (turns off all addons)

But I'm guessing you are going to need to move your files to a backup drive and format C..
