    Hey guys,

    Sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong section.

    On my Lenovo T500, in IE7, on the top grey area including the grey tab area(below the web address area) it has a weird blocky blue graphic on the grey background. It's there whether I maximise or minimise the screen.

    Do you know how to get rid of it?

    Thanks!

    Thanks for the quick reply!

    I went to reinstall it and saw IE8 B2 and installed that but it still has the same weird color effect

    That's how IE 7's color scheme is. It's normal.
