What controls font size?

[Manny]

I read my newsgroups in AOL. The font is quite tiny, looks to be 8.0 or so. I
have played around quite a bit with Appearance settings in Control panel |
Display, but I can't seen to enlarge the font. Any suggestions besides getting
a different newsreader?

Thanks,

Manny

Perhaps it's related to the setting within AOL? Have you
tried going to Settings --> Preferences -->
Font,Text,Graphics (From your AOL toolbar)? Just a
thought... Good luck!

Are you using the default blue and white screen that was down for hours
today? If so, you will really appreciate the difference of Outlook Express.
You can adjust fonts and do so many other things that you will never want to
return to the old way. The name you need to enter is: msnews.microsoft.com

you would get on much better using OE;
if you go to http://support.microsoft.com, follow the link on 'Post to
news groups' to
http://support.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.aspx
and follow through there to Outlook Express and its TELL ME HOW, you get
to a comprehensive tutorial
