My machine does the same, leaving me with shaded blocks, lines and
symbols instead of lower case alphabet letters. But most of them
are worth the aggravation of having to turn my machine completely
off and on again (esp. fireworks.vt).
If someone knows a command key to switch the damn symbols back into
oblivion so I can read my screen, let me know.
:)
Best,
Me
