My right click menu shows Japanese fonts..!! Save ME..!!

S

My right click sub menus (send to & open with) are shown in Japanese fonts. However when I hover my mouse over the links they temporarily revert back to English. How do I correct this? :cry:

Also when I turn-off my comp an End Program Box appears saying that a program called "CDirectoryChangeWatcherHelper" needs to be closed. I haven't installed such a program and the task manager processes tab show no such running process. IS IT A VIRUS? :shock:

use an image hosting website like imageshack.us to upload images...attachments don't work in this forum. google for that "cdirectorychangewatcherhelper"...it might help..though i suspect its a virus infection.run a complete system scan using avira or kaspersky.

& please do not post links to your blog.

go for a scan with the following softwares:

* *www.superantispyware.com/download.html
* *www.emsisoft.com/en/software/free/

Virus / Trojan Related problems will be solved. I think it's a virus/trojan. Or else you can even try Online Scanning: *mrintech.com/5-best-online-virus-scanners-you-can-use

I think it's a theme problem. Revert to normal Windows theme

How can you be sure that it is not chinese or korean ?

^^How does it matter?

The Korean characters are somewhat squarish compared to Chinese and Japanese.

And the Chinese characters look too congested compared to Japanese. :lol:
