Default Large Fonts Online

Hello there everyone...
I have a problem where my fonts are very large on many websites, making them hard to read (because of small windows). It occurs both in AOL and Internet Explorer. Does it have something to do with my screen resolution? I recently upgraded to a larger monitor that uses 1280x1024. I like the monitor at this resolution though, so is there anything else I could possibly do? Thank you for your help.

Ctrl + Scroll wheel will change the font size, so you can set it to what you feel like.

Thanks for your help. I figured out what was wrong and remedied the situation.

Did the CTRL+SCROLL WHEEL solve it for you?

Without a scroll wheel....

[ Toolbar ] View --> TexSize --> (Choose a Size!)


The scroll wheel is a neat trick though!
