Software: iTunes
Version: 9
Operating System: Windos XP/Vista/7
Problem:
When you open iTunes and go to the iTunes store, you are not able to read the font or text on the screen. It looks like another language or gibberish.
Solution:
Delete ALL Helvetica fonts. All of them, and restart your computer.
Notes:
It’s strongly recommended you backup your fonts before deleting them.

Had a customer bring in a HP netbook that you could power on, but nothing would show up on the screen. Apparently this model has a design flaw. I googled and found a couple of solutions you can try before calling HP.
Solution A: Thermal Reset?
Some people have had luck by pulling the battery and puting the netbook in the freezer for a couple of minutes. They claim it works, but I’ve tried this with no luck. Their claims are based on the fact that it resets the thermal censor on the motherboard.
Solution B: Power Cycle
A couple of people have called HP tech support and they had them remove the battery and the ac power adapter. Then hold down the button for 45 to 60 seconds. Then replace the battery and the power adapter. A couple of people said it would power up, really doubt this will work, but who knows. I really believe this is a different problem, maybe like a bad hibernation or sleep mode session.

Installed this add-0n for Firefox thinking it would help me with my spelling, but I found a major bug. When I was trying to make a purchase on PayPal the “pay” button wouldn’t work. Then again when using a submit button on my ProWorkFlow.com website.
To make sure I had the right add-on, I tested it with it enabled and with it disabled. I’m not sure why it’s causing it, but it definitely is the culprit. I disabled all add-ons and just enabled this plug-in and the submit or save button wouldn’t work.
