It doesn't have anything to do with the particular program you're running. Programs couldn't control that if they wanted to. The problem is in the monitor. I can't explain the physics behind this particular disorder, and I'm not sure if there is a simple adjustment to fix it, but it probably won't have any other consequences. I know that inside the Mac, there are a couple of pots to adjust monitor focus and brightness. Perhaps lowering the brightness a tad (even with the outside control) would help as it would reduce the contrast between the black and the white. I have a suspicion that high contrast might be contributing to the problem. --marc -=- "Master, why is the letter 'i' the symbol for current?" "Because there is no letter 'i' in the word 'current'." "Master, why do we use the letter 'j' for sqrt(-1)?" "Because we use the letter 'i' for current." Whereupon the Master struck the Disciple, and the Disciple became enlightened.
