How to switch off Clear Type in IE7 CZ

[Vladimír Cvajniga]

Finally!!! IE7 CZ was just released (Jan 15th 2007) and I decided to install
it on my PC. My problem now is that I can't find an option to switch off
Clear Type in IE7. I really HATE Clear Type because it makes typeface
SMUDGY. Does anyone have an idea how to switch it off in IE7? It's switched
off in other applications - I used Clear Type Tuning from WinXP PowerToys.
But it has no effect on IE7 typeface...

TIA

Can't speak for CZ but in EN it is Tools->Internet Options->Advanced tab.
Under Multimedia remove the check from "Always use ClearType for HTML*".

TYVM, Tom! I wouldn't expect it was in Multimedia ... :O
I have also made a search in regedit, it's under
"HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftInternet ExplorerMain" UseClearType = no.
