    What browser? What OS?  Do you mean text viewed in your browser, or browser window size?

      Internet browser, Windows browser? What do you mean "keep it" at 100%?

        When I open the browser it goes to 125% I want it to open at 100%.

        Again, what browser? Internet Explorer, Firefox, what?  And, what version of the browser do you have?

        Do you know how to change the size when your browser is open?

        I've never seen a browser open larger than the screen size - is that the only window that does that? And have you used the MAXIMIZE button (middle button in the upper right corner)? That should set the window to 100% screen size.

          If I change it to 100% and open a new site it changes back to 125%

          First, how about telling us everything at once instead of making us drag the information out of you? The quality of the help you get is in direct proportion to the quality of the information you provide.

          You should do a full scan of your system with your av (with the current definitions) AND with either Malware Bytes or Super AntiSpyware. Let's see if that helps.

          deplee, again, you're clouding the issue. In a previous post, I asked whether you're talking about text/font size in your browser, or the browser window.  You said you were talking about window size.  But, as Allan said, you can not have greater than 100% window size.  In other words, if your browser window is maximized, it is using 100% of your monitor/screen space.  Obviously, your window size can not exceed your monitor/screen size, or 100%.

          On the other hand, text size that you see in your browser window can be varied, and can be greater than the normal size.

          And, I ask again, do you know how your Maximize button works?

            Not talking about font/text. Browser window size is what I mean.

            If you disagree with this, post a screen shot to show us exactly what you mean.
