IE Fonts are HUGE!

Comment:
I have a PC and when I go to Internet Explorer the fonts are huge on certain pages. When I click view - text size, it is set to smallest. Some web pages look huge and some pages look normal. My www.msn.com for example has really big fonts and is all distorted. I have tried everything I can think of. If anyone has any suggestions feel free to respond.

what is your screen resolution set to? go to display properties/settings/adavnced/general and adjust your DPI to normal if your resolution is set right but if it is 640X480 or 800X600 try setting ti to 1024X768

Try holding control button and moving the scroll wheel on your mouse.

I have already tried the scroll wheel thing. I will check the DPI and get back to you.
Thanks for your Input.

That didn't work. It was already set to normal. The screen resolution is set to 1024 x 768. Any other ideas??

run a custom windows update and see if there are any for IE. It may just be an IE issue. Sorry it took so long to reply, I just noticed the alert.
