All the characters have turned into boxes.

I have no idea what triggered this. Reinstalling does not work.

Any help?

The problem is with fonts. Now and then we get a feedback very similar to yours and to this day I don't think we solved it once.

We are using the default WPF fonts which for XP should be Tahoma and for Vista Segoe. Somehow this fonts get broken and you end up with squares.
Squares are displayed when a certain character can't be found. For example lets say I have a US XP and are trying to paste in some Chinese characters. If I don't have these characters installed they will show up as squares.

Did you install any software recently which could interfere with fonts?

Could you also send me ManicTimeClient.log file. You will find it in the same folder as the database.

Could you also try stopping Windows Presentation Foundation Font Cache 3.0.0.0 as described here. (Close MT first) http://support.microsoft.com/kb/937135
