It seems suddenly the font on IE on most sites has become  so small that I have to get to within several inches of the monitor in order to read it.

When I click 'view' and 'text size' it already is set to 'the largest'.  Tried to change the font size but it does not work; tried highlighting text in order to change and that did not work.

However, when I came ONTO your site the text was so large I had to cut it down to medium and on IE it worked.  Go figure?

Only thing I have done recently was to install Firefox because of having Flash Player problems on IE.  There are some sites that demand Flash Player in my PC work so needed to find some way to access same.  Though the Flash Player files sit on my PC, for some reason when on IE they are not recognized.

Not sure if the two browsers together are causing the font problems on IE.  Can advise?


Not a definite answer.

How about some troubleshooting.

Uninstall your Firefox & that Flash plugin.

You can easily install them back.Multiple browsers do NOT conflict.

In IE, go Tools>Internet Options>Advanced tab, click "Reset" button.
Restart computer.It helped one site but others still remain too small to read.  Can advise more?

PS.  I had lost this posting and no sooner had I reposted than I found this thread again.  Will go cancel my second post lest moderators  feel I am double posting.
