I just got a new computer, and it came with a strange white square exactly as described in that article in the top left corner of my Windows XP desktop.
(Picture of issue HERE (http://www.digitaltoast.co.uk/strange-square-in-top-left-corner-of-monitor-in-windows-with-ati-card))
It's a simple(?) bug in the ATI graphics card drivers version 8.1.
Very strange, and my first though was that old school movie The Net where a small icon was a link to a large virus or something... lol
But that was me just being paranoid of course. :o
Juat a heads up to anyone who is using an ATI video card!
Upgrade to driver 8.2 at least!
(I'm about to do that when I get home tonight)
