IE Text Size

[shelbyGT]

Alright, my work computer bugs me. Every time I open up a new IE window first thing in the morning, I have to go in and change the Text Size to "Medium" from "Smaller". It'll stay that way for awhile, and then later on I'll notice it's back to smaller again.

Am I missing a setting here?

Having a similar problem.

The first time after reboot, the IE text size defaults to smaller. I change it to larger and it stays there.

Does this on two computers using ME and XP pro. Screen res is 1024 X 768 on both.

hold Ctrl and move the scroll wheel forward or backwards to change the size quickly

well that's nifty, thanks.
I still don't know why it still defaults to Smaller, but that'll be better than nothing I suppose.

[reboot]

Check your international font settings in Outlook. This can override IE's default.
The registry key in question is at
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\International\Scripts\3 which has a IEFontSize binary value.
If you're running Eudora or Pegasys, the font size there can also affect it.
In Eudora, look under Tools, Font. (not sure where in Pegasys).

I think Eudora is the culprit. However, if I change all the font settings to "Medium", it just gets WAY too big and ugly. So, looks like I've just got to live with having to reset it every day.

Thanks reboot.
