OE has gone large print

I hardly know how to describe this new problem. This evening while reading
inbox mail in the view window {below the inbox}. All of a sudden, the
scroll bar wouldn't move, the entire window began to shimmy. Next, the font
size seemingly increased two sizes. Arial 8 looks like 12.

I rebooted PC. Functionality basically returned - except, the font size is
out of whack - too big. Some old e-mails look ok, but if I attempt to
forward and add content, my normal Arial 12 looks two sizes bigger.

Two days ago, Bruce Hagen guided me through creating a new identity for a
neighbor's ailing PC {her toolbar had disappeared]. With that experience
fresh in my mind, I attempted to create a second identity just to see if it
returned the font sizes back to normal. It did, BUT, I now see a strange
'Create New Message' window - it contains an additional top 'line.' Just
above the normal 'To:' line, there's another one entitled: 'From:' In the
line/box is: jc55@roadrunner. com (pop-server.roadrunner.com). [I can't
delete anything within this top 'From' box]

Try as I may, I can't remove this top line. I've never seen this extra line
entry before. If I could remove it, I would probably attempt to {once
again} copy my long .dbx folder group and my WAB from the old identity - and
use the new identity.

Bruce, less than two weeks ago, you guided me through a lengthy process for
reducing a bloated .dbx store so I could migrate it to my new Dell.

I thought I'd finally finished dialing in this new Dell {WinXP Pro}

I don't have a clue what's going on with my OE6. I really need help. [in
fact, this e-mail is looking too 'large']. I've no idea what went haywire.
