Fabio, Try this:

In menu bar at the top select View, then zoom and then either zoom out or try reset.

Well... I'm happy with the result of Ipod transfer & re-loading etc etc.
Admittedly I chose a programme that I had to pay for, but that was due to having problems downloading a free one. I've had so many problems with this lappy recently that I was very wary of cocking it all up again.
so... downloaded the programme, transfered all tunes fron pod to file (not on the lappy, but straight through to a file on an external HD, so Im no longer clogging up the lappy anyway) then downloaded a fresh iTunes, again straight to exHD... crossedfingers and eyes... oi viola!!! done.
transfered, booted, arse kicked, and I safely rock n roll once more.
(I'm celebrating with Puddle of Mudd as I stab at this here keyboard)

I believe the price merrited the download, what with over 30 G's of sound to save. All good.

Thanks for the advice folks.

With firefox, you can change the text size 'on-the-fly' by using CTRL and +/- (i'm too lazy to move my hand over to the mouse)

ok, so after saving my laptop once, dagging it from the jaws of the skip with dextrous manipulation of 'f'-keys and 'safe-modes'... resetting to 'factory' and even having the wireless come back from the dead as a result....

.... my un-dead zombie lappy was only pacing listlessly through the park in search of flesh awaiting it's inevitable demise at the hands of a baseball bat wielding starlett, or simply falling to it's knees in it's own filth for lack of sustanance...

It's dead!

or is it?

I try to revive it. Lightening rods and van derGraff Generators abound, though now the twice dead lappy will do no more than show a power light... with the occasional (and I mean 'occassional') flash from the disc activity light thiningie.

the screen is as dark as my soul... I hear it breathing, but that appears to be just an automatic responce.

Is there hope?
