Hi,I am not sure if anyone can help me here. But since I found a Trojen in my SL file...I wiped the hard drive ...Downloaded SL again ..and the new Viewer...noe all of my Boot Bases have turned into laggins the same colour as the boots...and also my underskirt pants have gone longer....very annoying as I can no longer wear boots with a dress.
This only happens on the Computer that I reloaded with SL and the new Viewer.

If anyone has any i dea's...please let me know.

System specs might be of use.

Sounds like a video driver problem. Most likely you have an nVidia graphics card, and need to try a different driver. I think the one that people report as working is 175.1, although that's from memory, and I don't have an nVidia card myself. (Well technically I do, but not on the machine I use for SL.)

I take it by laggins you meant leggings.

Also you might want to re-consider whether reformatting your hard drive is an appropriate way to deal with a reported Trojan in an SL file. It is not unusual for anti-malware software to give "false positive" reports of trojans, viruses, worms, etc. where none actually exist. There is a site that will enable you to have a suspect file scanned by numerous anti-malware programs, and if the file is reported clean by nearly all of them, you can rest fairly well assured the rest are false positives.
