Hey Fellas, got a weird nerd problem here at work which I never seen before. A computer here has decided to turn itself upside down. Up is down, left is right and so on. Has anyone ever seen something like this before, I certainly haven't. She open a attachment, my first thought was a virus but I got the same thing and it never did anything to mine. any hints or suggestions as to how this can happen.

Do you have any software on it, like PivotPro or anything like that?
Virus maybe? |

We run Etrust and it found nothing, no new hardware or software has been installed. Just very bizarre, I thought it was virus but it seems to be clean. Scanned it using Etrust and Symantec.

I've seen something like this before, try holding ctrl + alt and press the up arrow, that might set it back to normal.

Nailbomb, you are a champion it worked a treat. I didnot even know you could that, this will come in handy to annoy people.
