Platform:

Windows XP Professional
Apache 2.0.39
PHP 4.2.2
Horde 2.1
IMP 3.1
Aspell .33.5
MySQL 3.23.52
using IE 6

Everything has been working great, up until yesterday. Suddenly, the compose 
window is broken: there are several lines of garbage at the top of the window. 

It looks something like this:

S@EVICE\TCPIP_{C9CC24FE-FB3C-4C02-A312-427D89851272} Lx
(T0\ 8d@l.h)),-xު?
yT@\*OThr0򁰰кpMMMM MMMM 
<SSMMM N NMNS  N 
NMN0M^O$QbOLOLO< 
P@H|O|OOO$OOOO <W?

This fills up about half the window. This is followed by the "Message 
Composition" banner, the "Send", "Save" and "Cancel" buttons, and the "From" 
and "To" fields. The rest of the fields do not appear. Similar results when 
replying.

As a temporary workaround, I can leave the "To" field blank and click 
the "Send" button; this gives me an error ("You must have at least one 
recipient"), but the compose window then displays properly.

"View source" on a garbled page returns what looks to be normal code until the 
bottom of the page, where I get:

    <td align="right"><a href="" onclick="open_help_win('imp', 'compose-to'); 
return false;" onmouseout="window.status='';" 
onmouseover="window.status='Help'; return true;"><img 
src="/horde/graphics/help.gif" border="0" alt="Help" width="12" height="17" 
title="Help" /></a></td>
</tr>
</table>
    </td>
</tr>
S        @E V I C E \ T C P I P _ { C 9 C C 2 4 F E - F B 3 C - 4 C

L                                          
x                                          
                                          
                                          

This goes on for another 20-30 lines.  

I'm not sure what happened. The only thing I did around the time this started 
was apply a theme downloaded from horde.org. I tried removing the modified 
html.php and replacing it with the distribution copy, but the problem remains.

I searched the archived lists on MARC with no success. A search of the web 
turned up a page at the University of Michigan 
(http://www.itd.umich.edu/itddoc/s/s4297/s4297B.html, see bottom) describing a 
similar problem; their fix is to uncheck the "Compress pages" checkbox 
in "Advanced Options". Problem is, I don't have an "Advanced Options" option.

Does anyone have any thoughts? I can certainly reinstall everything, but I'd 
like to avoid that.

Thanks for any help!
