i reinstalled windows about 4 months ago, cause IE8 messed up in download and i had already uninstalled IE7 so i had no way to get back on the net to redownload IE8, and in turn it messed up my WinXP. ... but up until YESTERDAY, everything was completely 100% ok.
I do have IE6 on a disk that I can install temporarily in order to uninstall IE8 and then just upgrade back to it to see if it truely is IE8 that is messed up though.
There are only certain webpages that look fuzzy or not as crisp as they use to be. I have no idea what is wrong.
I have not made any changes to display properties as they are, and always have been set correctly... and i have not YET made any changes to IE8 (then again, IE does have really have "display options"... it gets info from your vidcard / chipset and configures itself that way.
any other ideas??

Posted: Tue Aug 18, 2009 8:21 pmok guys, i just got off the phone with Microsoft Customer Support for Internet Explorer 8.
ultimately, they helped me reset IE8 back to a brand new install WITHOUT addons running.
this fixed the problem. -- everything is back to normal now. Thanks for at least trying to help A1.

Posted: Mon Aug 31, 2009 4:26 amToo late but it looks like there was a problem with the Flash player for IE8.
For future reference (if you didn't know) if you have problems with IE try clicking:
Tools > Manage Addons
From there you can see Addons that run without permission, current running addons and all, you can disable any you want to test if the problems go away!
Or alternatively use Firefox
