Hi MiniMe :-)
As you do not mention the version of Windows or IE you are using, I'll have
to guess, so try the following information and see if it helps:
Resetting the DPI
http://archives.hwg.org/hwg-style/200003031517.IAA04376@hwg.org
Resetting Your Display to use Small Fonts
http://www.blueoxforestry.com/RILSIM/small-fonts.htm
(You can play with this here until you find the setting you want)
How do I change screen resolution and/or font size using Windows XP?
http://support.academic.com/academicknowbase/root/public/acdm9150.htm
Adjusting Scale for Higher DPI Screens
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/workshop/author/dhtml/overview/highdpi.asp
If these steps do not resolve your problem, please post back to this thread
with the details and any error messages.
Hope this helps
Jan :)
