In the text style ,  there is appeared such a strange letters like {18...}.
I am wondering if my file is infected but i am not sure. 
Because all the files's text style are changed from arial to arial narrow without my intention after i resetted the laptop and installed again the autocad. Can you guys help me with this problem? Thank you !

Not likely it is anything more sinister than you inserted or copy/pasted from an outside file with that in it, or RECOVER/AUDIT command tried to fix something and that is the result.

If you think ALL of your files are infected and/or your system is infected too then turn off your computer, then take it to a computer repair shop and pay them to weed through it all and clean it out.

Unfortunately this is, incredibly, by Autodesk design.  Each time you use BEDIT to edit or create a block with a dynamic block parameter, those random text styles are created that use simplex.shx.  Autodesk's intent was that creating a new GUID based name wouldn't interfere with existing text styles.  Wish they would've thought of cleaning them up on exiting the block editor.
