Now I see what all of you have been complaining about. I disabled my directdraw in DXDIAG and Hoster went nuts. The way the words scrolled on the screen... It was not smooth like normal it just kind of showed up and not I guess scroll in.. got flashing and strange looking things going on.

Good work TK cause now I was finally able to see everything everyone was complaining about.

So if you do not know how to find DXDIAG here is a simple way to find it.

Click on Start -> Move mouse over search -> Click on for files or folders -> type in the search box DXDIAG -> Click Search Now.

This will dispaly anything that has DXDIAG in the name title. Make sure to check all files that say DXDIAG only (open them and then check them) and make sure under the display tab (if you have display 1 and display 2 tabs check both) that DirectDraw is enabled.

This is the only thing when I disabled directdraw that let me see what you all were talking about. Once I enabled it again it all went away.
