some guys really don't know what they are doing. looking nice seems more important than being readable. ever seen a red background with tiny purple text? impossible to read. An option is: select text and press control c and press control v in a new text file. (this will copy and paste the text.) By the way, this option also works on web pages that don't allow rightclick and then copy and paste (those that want to earn money with delivering text).

You can enlarge the text using a wheel mouse by holding down the left Ctrl key and using the scroll wheel. Note: scroll it one click at a time.

have you checked that the Show > Textsize in Explorer isn't too low? because if the site your visiting haven't put a text size it will be as big as it is in the textsize thing.. had this problem before.. the textsize was on large for some reason :)

Sometimes changing the text size is not possible. My pet peeve is www.nasdaq.com where it shows the market index values in the box to the right in very small text and you cannot make it bigger. This is a permanent problem for those of us with high resolutions (mine is 1600x1200).
Hey I just went to nasdaq and they have made it one font size bigger than it used to be! I sent them a note a while back about the problem and someone must have listened. I feel so powerful now...
