IE presenting with very large fonts

Sep 30, 2005 10:21PM PDT

On my neighbor's system, IE shows up with very large fonts that causes the contents to be wrapped around, etc. I can't find anywhere to correct this. Suggestions?

Disneyfan, Open IE click View>Text Size and change it to a smaller size.

Large fonts or small font sizes?

The Mac has that option also to view font sizes on your monitor. Just do not go to 72 point (1 inch high), your neighbors could read your screen. Ten point is normal to view. Want it larger? Be my guest. Whatever helps.

If your neighbor has a scroll button, try pressing control (CTRL) while scrolling down. It works on my computer to make the font smaller.
