Extra Large Fonts

[Steve P]

Hello,
I have encountered an odd problem never seen before and I could find nothing
on the MS website about.
A machine running W2K SP4 with all current updates has developed an odd
behavior. All of the fonts viewed inside the browser are extremely large (up
to 10x's and more the original size) All Windows settings are normal and
when I login as another profile IE behaves as expected. I think it must be a
local setting, but I've checked them all and reverted to all default and
still the fonts are huge. I have tried changing text size under View-->Text
Size to no avail. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Steve

Hi,
A few things to look at:
Font Changes Size in Internet Explorer 5 Using Eudora Pro 4.1 or 4.2:

Internet Options> General> Accessibility. For most users, nothing should be
checked.

Control Panel> Accessibility Options> Display. Make sure that High Contrast
is not checked.

Some desktop themes can cause trouble. Disable the theme.

Hope this helps,
Don
