Once when I had a quite virulent virus I had lots of weird and unexplained stuff like this happening in multiple programs. I can't help but think that's the most likely answer.

Even though I got this issue fixed, I've suspected for other reasons I might be infected, yet all the scans reveal are cookies and adware, not malware.

Long story short, I accidentally erased the fonts in the C:\Users\[user name]\Documents\Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 14/fonts folder. Once I realized this and figured out how to restore the fonts, everything appears to be working fine.

The only potential glitch, again of my doing, is that I reinstalled the game several times and now I have to remember all the database settings and in-game settings, but I'll probably do that.

So eriqjaffe had it completely right, except upon installation my copy of the game dumped my Out of the Park Developments game files under My Documents instead of under Program Files (x86), which I don't know why, but I did not make the connection at the time.

I appreciate everyone's help on this. Now I can resume my work. Thanks!

good

The virus I had only showed up in one of the three anti-virus programs I used, and even that couldn't remove it. It may be that you'll have to bite the bullet and do a zero fill and complete system re-install at some point. Hopefully it won't be necessary though as it's a real pain in the butt to do that.
