v.2.2 Shopping Cart produces strange characters

I am just going through functional tests for v2.2 and am getting a page of strange characters (sample below) when clicking the re-order button from the order information page.

I cannot reproduce the issue on a clean install.

I have only made changes to css styling, no code changes.

I had this show up on the screen after I changed the category menu to show how many products were there.

I have now found that is the shopping cart generally that is affected. Adding anything to cart or viewing cart generates the garbage.

I have been making changes to CSS all night so not exactly sure what broke it.

I have applied the style to a clean install with demo db with no issue so it's not that.

I have also tried different browser. In i.e clicking add to cart or view cart invokes a file download rather than taking you to the cart. Of course, there isn't a file to download so nothing happens.

Firefox generates the garbage page?

I am using no source version. Is there a direct fix or do I need to download source, apply changes and recompile the files?

'm not sure whether it'll help, but you can also try the following steps:
1. Open web.config file
2. Find out the following line <customErrors defaultRedirect="errorpage.htm" mode="RemoteOnly">
3. Replace it with <customErrors defaultRedirect="errorpage.htm" mode="Off">

I have tried this but it didn't help.

I have also built a clean site with fresh install and its ok with the demo data until I point it to the production database and the problem comes back.

I really need some help with this please.

I have recompiled a clean install with the change sets applied and when I run the install I get the following errors.

I do not understand the code so don't know what to do and am waiting to go live. I have a feeling it may have been all the .net windows updates on 12/10 that broke it in first place as everything was fine before.
