So there's something wrong with my computer... Whenever you click on a certain icon.. It goes kind of transparent.. o-o

Could you be a little bit more specific? Computer type, what icon, etc.
Okay.

I have a Windows XP, and last night, my Internet wasn't working, it'd load, but you couldn't see anything... So i went into my Dad's account, and tried to scan it, i scanned it once, but it was kinda short for some reason, not sure if it scanned all the files. So i tried scanning it again, when i clicked on the icon, it went transparent. You can kind of see it, but it wouldn't open. The text on the start button also disappeared, aswell as the text on "My Pictures", "My Computer", etc.

Hope that helped.. :gyroidconfused:
 
Did you restart?
Maybe it's a virus.
Just try retyping the names into the folders, idk about the start button.

Good idea. Also, I wouldn't recommend Tech Support, you'll never get through.

Okay, maybe i'd have luck going on Yahoo! Answers?

Anyway, anyone else wanna help? D:
 
I have never heard of anything like this sorry.... sound like either some weird virus, or some setting was set weird....
 
Sounds like the program was loading and lagging your computer or something. >.> I don't know much about computers.
 
Happened to me on my old Windows 2000 before. I just said "lol, Windows". I think it got fixed when I restarted.
 
Control Panel / System / Advanced / Performance Tab / Settings Button and put a checkmark in: Use Drop Shadows for Icon Labels on the Desktop
