My husband said the 'film' was actually something that got installed inside the
computer. I remembered the thing incorrectly. But, he said it was for a
different technology. He suggested maybe it was some sort of eye strain and had
an idea. Go to Microsoft.com and find a microsoft toy called true type tuner.
Download it and follow instructions. He said you can adjust the type so it is
easier to focus on. Hope that helps. Deb

I work on a laptop... small screen... and tend to
furrow my brow a bit and squint in concentration. Probably I should get a
larger monitor and see if that helps.

Any info on the film would be appreciated. Thanks much! :)
