Hi jerryone,

Follow these steps and your text size will default to the size you want:

1. Open your registry like this: Run> regedit>OK

2. Save your registry if you haven't done so already.

3. Open up the key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\International\Scripts\3\IEFontSize.

4. Change the REG_BINARY value from 02 00 00 00 ("medium" text size)
to 04 00 00 00 for "largest" or to whatever you want (see below).

5. Open up IE to see if it looks the way you want it, and if so, you're done. 

Just in case, here are the keys for the text size you want:

00 00 00 00 = smallest
01 00 00 00 = small
02 00 00 00 = medium
03 00 00 00 = large
04 00 00 00 = largest

Search strategy:
None. I needed to change mine once and remembered the way.


I hope that helps. If you have any questions regarding my answer
please don't hesitate to ask before rating.

Best regards,
