Thanks for the reply. I will probably scan the system and check the video settings and drivers.
I'll let everyone know what I found.

I doubt that's an infection nor a result of a password bypass unless it wasn't obtained from a credible source. I would think this is a driver issue esp where everything is fine in safe mode. Have you tried having them reload the drivers for the video card? See if there are any gamma tweaks going on also. Report findings. -- Regards, joeuser - Still looking for the 'any' key...
