I have inherited a computer but when I go onto the internet, all text comes up as large. Is there a way of defaulting this to smaller text without having to go the view button and selecting the text size each time? I must admit that sometimes even the smallest text size is too big for the computer screen. Never had this problem with other computers before. Thanks for all your help in advance.

Just the web browser. Can you help?

What browser are you using?

if you go to View on many browser menus, there should be an option to increase or decrease text size. There should be a heading named Text Size, then a sub menu. Try it and see.

[joe will fix it]

Hi there again, as i said all help is free, some people will charge u alot for even small problems with your system, tell me which browser are you using? in any case try to get Internet Explorer 7, if your system is xp pack 1 and you don't have ie7, it won't let u upgrade but don't worry for all of you i have copy of xp pack 2 and i can send you for free, all you have to do is ask and why am i doing this for free, am i mad or psycho? none i believe if i can help someone today then someone can help me tomorrow like it used to be in stone age.

the Text Size setting doesn't always work, but there's good news for your aching eyes. You can get around the problem this way:

In Internet Explorer, select Internet Options from the Tools menu.
On the General tab, click the Accessibility button.
In the Formatting section, place a tick (checkmark) beside Ignore Font Sizes Specified On Web Pages.
Click OK twice to exit.
This should help with most sites. Unfortunately, on some it will probably cause the text to appear jumbled. In that case, you'll need to remove the tick from Ignore Font Sizes Specified On Web Pages to view the page correctly.

or the easy way to do is

hold down CTRL and use the mouse wheel to increase/decrease font size quickly.

he may have IE7 which there is a magnifying glass at the bottom right hand corner, make sure that says 100% otherwise the text is gonna be enlarged
