Hello,

I have a normal computer, with Windows 2000 professional...

Last night, somehow I decreased the font size of the text at
GMAIL.com, and Yahoo.com , and even Google.com.  Other sites like
ESPN.com look normal.

I think, when sites give the option of a lesser font size, I am doing
it because I changed my settings.

I think I need to push control, while using the scroller on my mouse
to increase the font size.  This has happened to me before with my
other computer, when using Outlook, the text went smaller, and I had
to scroll up while holding down control to increase the font back to
normal..

but I am trying this, to no avail!  How can I make those sites, look
normal again, like they use to, the size of the font is to small, and
I can't get it to normal

In Internet Explorer, simply go to the View menu, Text Size, and
select one of five font sizes.  


Increase or Decrease the Font Size of Web Pages Displayed on Screen:

?Using the View menu in Internet Explorer, you can quickly change the
size of fonts on your screen to make the page easier to read. When you
make these changes in Internet Explorer, they also will be reflected
on all Microsoft Help pages. In this tutorial you can select from five
different font sizes.?

1. On the Internet Explorer menu bar: 

Select View
 
Point to Text Size

2. In the Text Size list: 

Select the text size that best meets your needs from smallest to
largest.
