I fought off a nasty virus recently and now all my programs are defaulting to the metric system - Page setup defaults are all European paper sizes, measurements are all in mm, etc. I suspect XP can be reset, but I can't figure out how. Can someone help?

Sound like a good virus to me...boy would that make my life easier ;-)

Anyway. What are your "Regional Settings" set to in Control panel? .
Check the Advanced settings and check the box at the bottom to make it default
You'll need to reboot to take effect.

Only the truly stupid believe they know everything.
