Can any tech out there help me with a problem I've been trying to fix all morning.
I'm running Windows 7 my browser is Firefox and this morning when I've turned on the PC I ran into a problem I've not seen before.
The websites that I normally check first are Hotmail, Facebook, Youtube and of course Answerbank.
Instead of the usual graphics each of these websites are showing as text. The best way I can describe it is Bullet points down the left of the page, no graphics and no clickable links.
I've uninstalled and re-installed Adobe as per Buenchicos instructions but this hasn't made any difference.
Also, my daughters account on the same PC is fine.
Any suggestions?

Sounds like the browser failing to interpret the HTML properly.
Perhaps try another browser to see if that makes a d ifference.
Sometimes I have firefox problems - I find the best way to deal with it easily is to uninstall FF then re-install. I find that of late it has given me far fewer problems such as the one you describe, so perhaps later versions are better at automatic updates. I dunno but it worked for me.
Usually a F5 refresh should sort that out.

Its the HTML and CSS files for whatever reason not being picked up by the browser

Thanks guys. I've installed Opera for now just so I could check my e-mails.
It seems to be working fine but I will have a go at re-installing Firefox later.
Check options in Firefox ; you may have accidentally turned off load images automatically in the Content tab.
