Re: Font in Inbox larger........

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

There are two ways to change the size of the reading font. You tried
the permanent way. Try the temporary way: View, Text Size, Largest.
Does that work?

If not, there are two other things to try.
1) Uninstall Norton, followed by using their debris removal tool:

Does that fix the problem?

2) Another option is to upgrade to Windows Live Mail, which is more
resistant to the adverse effects of overly intrusive antivirus products:

In any case you must disable any antivirus email scanning, for the reason

By any chance have you installed the IE8 beta? It causes that problem.

Otherwise let us know which third party security programs you are
running. Some of them prevent writing to the registry, which means
changes are not saved.

I did that and it's the same. I guess I am not controlled by mailbox. I guess
I have to deal with it. But....if you have any Other SUGGESTIONS... I am here
to try anything. (Thanks for all the responses so far.......)

Try clicking 'set as default'

I did all the steps correctly but it gave me NO option to click "Apply" (It
was WHITED out...)

I thought that was strange too but Vista is different so I just clicked
"OK"

Sounds like if don't hit "Apply" because I don't have the option to do
so.... it won't change. Is this correct?

Did you click 'apply' at the bottom before hitting 'close'?

***Thank You for your response to my (first time ) question on this forum...

I did do that (before I asked this question here) and changed it to
"Largest" but it's still small like the size of Times New Roman and maybe 12
pt or smaller.

It's just so small for me to see when it all cascades down when it comes in.
I have a hard time reading it. Any other choices I would have?

How do I change the font in Windows Live Mail in my inbox. As each mail comes
in it is so small. I would like to make it a little bigger. Is this possible.
(I know I could make it larger in Microsoft OutLook Express on my other
laptop with Windows XP)

Is there a way to do this with Vista/Windows Live Mail?
Computer is brand new and set up e-mail a few days ago. Everything else is ok.
Any suggestions for me to enlarge the font there?

THANKS.... LANE
