Greetings,
Is there a program/add-on for Internet Explorer by which the character
size of a web page easily can be changed? Ctrl+scroll wheel not always
effective. Firefox is doing a better job here.
Thanks for any advice.

Thanks Fuzzy. But this does not always do the job. Neither does the
scroll wheel plus ctrl. Was hoping something 'powerfull' should exist.
Ciao, Fred

One type of page it won't work on is when a style sheet specifies
exact sizes. I believe there's a option to make your own stylesheet
(css) and tell IE to use that instead of the stylesheet that is
provided for the page. However some pages may not display correctly if
you do that.

Hope that helps.
David.
