IE Graphics and Text Oversized...

[Guest]

Recently, don't recall when it started because I use different computers and
browsers, but IE on my laptop is showing all graphics and text at larger than
normal. This has nothing to do with changing the size of the text on the
menu bar because that doesn't affect the graphics which is what really
bothers me... they are too large and way pixelated. What would cause this
and how do I get it back to a proper size?

The other browser on this laptop is Mozilla and it shows everything as it
should be. Changing the display settings does not correct the problem, as
it is only IE that is messed up.

Hi,
If this machine is running Windows XP, this article may provide the fix:

I've heard one user report that the XP SP2 update fixes this. I can't find
confirmation of that.

Hope this helps,
