It just started doing this. On my desktop, the shadow on all of the text under my icons is really darker than normal. Text is also a little fuzzy in other places. And this only usually happens in IE 7, but now its happening in firefox for me too; the text has like a wierd green shadow.

im running XP Media Center Edition

I notice it is more intense on a white background . Are you using any sort of desktop effects ? Because I recall using an application a while ago that actually done this effect and you could change the darkness and angle of the shadow. I think it may have been Window Blinds.. or similar .

Lies. Thats what the names are like when you download them, I would know.

Your problem is your backround, windows changes text etc to be seen easier on your backround.
