Programming with XP Pro SP2 and .Net 2003 sp1. Ever since new image was put on my laptop I have problems with message box text showing up.

Isn't a problem with programs I write and use on other PC's...just this laptop.

I can put a title in there and the title shows up, but the button text and message box text don't show up.

Same problem with VB.Net and C#. Can't figure it out. Thought maybe it was because i needed an upgrade to VS.net but no other service packs available for OS or studio.

Cause:
This problem is the result of a bug in McAfee 8.0i. McAfee has a patch to
fix this problem that we downloaded from

http://sdownload.nai.com/products/protected/hotfix/VSE80P09.Zip

finally found the problem after almost 3 weeks of searching around the internet. I installed that patch and it worked perfectly. Now the text is back. Let's see who can answer this before I withdraw it. I need an answer so the question will not become invisible to searches here. This is apparently a problem that some people haven't found a solution to yet. My entire class at DeVry was experiencing this and most of them didn't even know because of the classes they were in at the time.
