Hello all,

While asleep my cats decide to get walk over my Macbook Pro, they are now locked in the basement. Some setting changed and I can not figure out how to undo them.

1. Black rectangle text box appeared with a white border at the bottom left of my screen that describes everything I am doing. I would like it to go away.

2. When on a website in safari if I scroll down the page, it automatically is returning me to the top of the page after about 3 seconds.

This is all incredibly annoying and not productive. I have attempted to restart my computer and even use time machine to return it to a previous time and that did not work. Thank you for your help!

Go into System Preferences, Universal Access. Turn "VoiceOver" Off, make sure "Zoom" is turned off, and set display for "Black on White". And keep the kitties off the keyboard.
