Thanks, Jens. I did have 3.0 installed also, and I found the extra fonts as you said. I de-installed 3.0 and then found 4.0 complained about font problems, so I de-installed and reinstalled 4.0, and now the fonts files look normal. Unfortunately, the graphics response is still sticky, so I'm not really sure what to do.
