Help with windows readibility / fonts ................ etc

[ted scherbel]

My eyes are getting weaker and I'm finding many items especially via IE-7 are
difficult to read. The font is small and designers all too often choose
settings that make for very low contrast. You'd think BOLD is a disease.
Is there anything I can do in Windows? Or even in IE ???

Thanks, Ted
