Anyone else have a black "text box" popping up on your TV with some weird text (like [fffff] or some whacky web addresses)? I am running bin 136... and it comes up quite often... takes the on/off button to get rid of it..

Usually that symptom is related to closed captioning. Check that on your STB settings to see if it's turned on.

I think ur caption setting is on in 3500S,,,, Close caption work only if ur TV close caption is on,,,, Check close caption for ur TV and set it to CC1 instead of CC2 or Text,,,,
I think this going to solve ur Problem
