My brother-in-law installed Foxfire on my computer without my knowledge and since then I've been missing a lot of characters on my character map! Is there any way to reinstall it or install newer version without viruses?
I have run Firefox on Vista for well over 2 years and not lost a thing on my Character map. Can you be more detailed about what you mean? Did he remove a font, or set another one up?
As for uninstalling it it uninstalls like any other program, the same way all windows have done since Windows 95 - Add / Remove Programs, although Vista now calls it Programs and Features, - still in the Control Panel.
If you use the classic Control Panel, it is right there. If you use the New Control Panel, it is under the category of Programs, and is called, appropriately enough, "Uninstall programs".

I don't know what happened, but when I checked my character map today everything was working, I had all my fonts and all my characters! But I appreciate you willing to help me out! Thank you very much!
I'm sorry to hear you lost your Character Map data, but I highly doubt it was from Firefox. I have used it several years since Firefox 1 and never had a problem. Try looking for anything else he may have downloaded by doing a search of your computer. Set the time modified to around the time he had your computer.
As for your character map, although its not as good, try this freeware character map: Download My CharMap
