Text size changes at will

[KJ]

I'm running Windows ME with IE 6.0 and for some strange
reason my text size of my IE will change erratically. I
have it set up for "larger" and every once in a while I'll
click a link while surfing and the link will shrink and
the next page will be the "smaller" text size. I have to
go to "view", then "text size" and then click on "larger".
Can anyone help me stop this annoying bug?

thanks!

Assuming you are not accidentally changing it with Ctrl+Scroll then it
shouldn't change unless some web site changes it or an email program.
Read this:

If IE-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_CURRENT_USER\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.
