Angry Windows Magnifier - Can't Turn Off
Can someone please help me? The Windows Magnifier (Accessibility) keeps turning on all by itself. I can't turn it off, even when I follow Microsoft's instructions to open the Magnifier dialog, clear the Show check box and/or click on Exit. When I open the Magnifier settings screen, it proceeds to open a second instance of the magnifier (I have two of the damn things on my screen), and I can only close the second one. This is incredibly frustrating. I swear, I will never buy a Microsoft product as long as I live.. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

What OS is it?
I don't remember if 2K supports System Restore.
But, if you have XP. And, this is a recent occurence.
Try this.
Start > Run > %SystemRoot%\system32\restore\rstrui.exe
