Default font size

[David]

Is there a way to change the default font size for IE 6?
Everytime I open the browser it defaults to "Small". I've
changed the size both from View|Text Size and the tool
bar icon, but when the browser is closed and then
reopened the font again returns to small. Is there a
tweak in the registry or some other setting I could use
to ensure that the font remains at "Medium" whenever the
browser is open? Thanks.

From Alan Edwards:

If View-Text Size does not stick....

---solution 1
If you are using Eudora 4.2 or greater then use Tools-Options-Viewing
Mail and uncheck "Use Microsoft's viewer"
It is Eudora that is setting the IE text size and unchecking that
option will stop it.

The key that Eudora 4.x will change is this:
[HKEY_USERS\.Default\Software\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\International\Scripts\3]
"IEFontSize"=hex:02,00,00,00

---solution 2
In Outlook 2000 go to Tools/Options/Mail Format/Fonts/International
Fonts, and for each font
change the "Font Size" entry to your desired size.
