I have a question

I have Windows XP Home and I also have Norton Anti-Virus software, although I had this little "issue" before I installed the anti-virus software. The text color on some of my documents (like pictures and word processing documents) has changed from black to blue. I just casually asked my friend if hers did this, and she said no. I checked my mother's computer, and hers is normal as well. So now I'm kind of paranoid that it's like, spyware or something, even though my anti-virus software should take care of that. I do not know if this makes a difference or anything, but I have DSL, and my computer is on a lot. Is there anything I can or should do about this? Thanks.

Do you mean the color of the names of the files has turned blue? If so, that means they have been compressed. If you use disk cleanup and have "compress old files" checked, when those files are compressed, that is indicated by changing the file names to blue text.
