I also have a black box around the red "quit" button on the top left of my window.

Hi stamey2,

It sounds like you've just turned on VoiceOver. It's pretty easy to fix, so don't panic. Just go to System Preferences->Universal Access->Seeing on your Mac. You'll be able to turn VoiceOver off there. You can also enable/disable VoiceOver usually by pressing cmd + F5.

Hopefully this helps!
