Somehow I changed the font size and can't get back to the
original setting. The web pages are now too large and I have so scroll
left/right to see the full page. I used to be able to see the whole page.
It's driving me nuts to have to scroll to see the part of the web page not
showing.

Anyone have a suggestion to put me back to where I was before. I've tried
using a smaller font size, to no avail. Also done from desktop right click,
properties,
settings etc and no better. Tried changing screen resolution and no better.
Is there a way to globally fix this once and for all.

This is driving me kookoo......

Appreciate any help

Bill

IE/Tools/Internet Options/General/Fonts.../Language script: "Latin based,"
Web page font: "Times New Roman," Plain text font: "Courier New" - these are
default. Also, make sure Language is set to English, and Accesibility boxes
are unchecked.

Hi Bill,

In IE, click on view>text size>medium. You may also choose any other text
size that you wish to. The medium size is the default text size in IE.
