Is it on a PSPN Report? If so, I have that at times too. I reported it in the old forums but it is still there at times.

I have the same problem with my old computer that doesn't meet the minimum specs of the game and that for some reason I can't get IE 6.0 to load on. On my good computer the lineups and pitch by pitch results are white letters in a blue box, with the tired old computer the blue boxes don't show up and the white letters tend to blend in with the crowd.

This is what it looks like

The attachment came out in poor quality, but this is the screen it happens on. I can still read the words, but it is hard.

You need to update your Internet Explorer and probably your video driver.

I have the latest internet explorer, but I think I know what is causing it. I have this program called hitman pro and you can enable this surfright helper thing that alters internet explorer. I also have xp-antispy with the suggested settings.

Is VIA/S3G UniChrome Graphics my video driver or just display?

I think that's your driver.

The best thing to try is a clean download/update of IE. What is happening is there are some graphics components in IE that are not working on your computer (hence the backdrop graphics that should be behind the text are not rendering).

Go to this page and (just to be sure go through a full IE upgrade

Alternately you could try downloading/updating the latest version of DirectX
