Hi Forum,
I am running WinXP Pro with Service Pack 2, My DIY PC was running perfectly fine yesterday. I shutdown my PC and next day, when I open my dial-up connection and navigate to some of my favourite sites (eg: Yahoo!), I found that the size of the text was blown up to twice the size.

I checked the Advanced Options under Appearance in the Display Settings but everything was normal, I resetted back to the Windows XP Theme, I tried reinstalling my Video Card Driver (GeForce FX5200), nVidia 6.1.2.1, but still nothing.

Any suggestions to fix the problem?

Hopefully go to IE View, Text size and set it to Medium.

Or with an IE browser open hold down the Ctrl key and spin your mouse wheel one click at a time to adjust the text up or down. (It does not work on this site (Winguides) though.)

Is there a way to make is so that some sites' text size are large, and others are medium?

Thanx

No, but using your mouse wheel as noted earlier makes it real simple and quick to make a change.
