IE6 font on webpages is a lot smaller

[Sweep and Clean]

I have XP with SP2 and recently the font on certain web pages has gotten
really small.

I have the "view text size" set to medium (moving it to large doesn't make a
difference) and I haven't changed the font setting in IE (it's still Latin
Based, Times News Roman, and Courier New).

I've run Ad-aware, Spybot and AVG and removed everything bad (spyware and
adware, no virus').

I tried checking some of the websites on another computer in my house and
it's fine.

Anyone have any ideas?

If IE-View-Text Size does not stick....

---solution 1
If you are using Eudora 4.2 or greater then use Tools-Options-Viewing
Mail and uncheck "Use Microsoft's viewer"
It is Eudora that is setting the IE text size and unchecking that
option will stop it.

The key that Eudora 4.x will change is this:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\International\Scripts\3]
"IEFontSize"=hex:02,00,00,00

---solution 2
In Outlook 2000 go to Tools/Options/Mail Format/Fonts/International
Fonts, and for each font
change the "Font Size" entry to your desired size.
