tiny font

[Guest]

I am not sure what myself or some member of my family has done, but suddenly
all of the font in Windows XP/IE 6 on my computer is so small not even a
magnifying glass can make it readable! Is this a new virus, or have I
stumbled upon something that needs to be fixed. I cannot read the drop down
menus, etc, but can see the Icons and can use any shortcut keys. Any
suggestions?

Hi,

If you can get to View/Text Size you can bump their sizes from there. I
don't know how to get there using just a keyboard.

Thanks, but that has been my problem, since I can't read anything. I have
tried to use Icons to get to the Settings portion of the display on the
control panel, but have not yet been successful there. It is worse than a
needle in a haystack.

Hi again,

Sorry bout that, I'd thought it was just your IE6 that was having the
problems.

Try it in Safe Mode. Keep hitting F8 during boot to select Safe Mode.
Everything should be regular size in safe mode.

wait, if its so small that you can't read it, how can you read what you
typed, and how can you read what the replies are, which means, you probably
can't even read what i'm saying
