The two answers I gave you were for Internet Explorer.
Those two email programs change the IE text size setting.

Trying to help my boyfriend set up his new computer over
the phone. I don't know what he clicked, but now all the
fonts in his IE are HUGE, he opens a webpage and sees
about 1/4 of what I see. We've clicked on view/text
size, and his is set at medium like mine. What else
could be wrong?

Thanks,
Erin

Go into Control Panel Accessibility applet.
Uncheck Use High Contrast on the Display tab.

Open Internet Options, Accessibility dialog
uncheck everything.
