due to an angry PM from the OP, i'll leave the core message of my last post here:
CHECK THE DUCTING. if something's coming out of it, something's in it, and its related to the ducting/blower.

Wow, I actually thought that was funny. We need a little laughter in this screwed up world we live in. Why would anyone get angry about that and think someone putting baby powder in there is funny? I just don't get it.
But anyway, it's only condensation coming out the vents. Don't worry about it. It happened to mine, and other people. The longer you have it on, the more mist will come out. Lighten up a little, go get laid or something.
