IE 6 small font
« on: August 10, 2007, 04:21:36 PM »
I just had to do a XP repair on my laptop.  It solved my original problem, but now the text in IE6 is too small.  I have gone to View>Font size, but increasing the size here doesn't have any affect.

help appreciated.

    They may have increased your screen resolution.
    Right click on your desktop and choose Properties>Settings and adjust it from there.
    Take note of the original setting in case you want to put it back to that.
    Try 800 x 600 or 1024 x 768 as a start.

    Is this true on all websites?  How about this forum in your web browser?

    I think Fed's on to something...
