Font rendering in msn? by Rackerz on 06-25-2006 at 12:47 AM

I circled the boxes in red, the problem is the boxes I've circled are meant to be love hearts so I think their's a font problem. I just re-installed Windows and the love hearts don't show up anymore, but they did before I re-installed. Anybody know what I can do to get them back?

those hearts are webwindings symbols not letters. So the Messenger program wil not show those hearts or what ever they are.

that happens to me too (although they never showed up in the first place) i'd like to get them though. (the hearts show up in webpages and such, it only seems to happen in msn)

It's possible that copy of that particular font doesn't have the heart symbol in it. Maybe before you reformatted, you had a program installed that updated the font in question. So, you may want to install that program again ;)
