HELP! web pages not displaying properly

My aunt has a new computer - HP with VISTA as her OS. ALL of the sites I
went to are mostly black - and do not load properly. I tried TOOLS/Internet
Options/Colors/Use Windows Colors - but no joy. I am looking for possible
things to try when I go BACK to see if I can help fix this. I went to
several sites that I KNEW what they looked like on my HP with XP HOME: ebay,
pogo and her favorite, thepixiepit ... ALL of those sites have black
backgrounds and only show the colored areas - this could be overlooked except
on pixiepit ... it is a scrabble site she goes to and she only has a grid, no
colors where the tiles go and no colored spaces denoting bonus areas ...

 

i needa girlfriend.....

Possibly she has accessibility options turned on? High-contrast colors?
