    I am facing a strange issue. My all internet explorer fonts are becoming small that I can barely see it. Any ways to solve it?
    Thanks
    I have attached the screenshot.

    Clear Cache maybe?

    (Chrome? Yuck - Google Spyware if I were asked - yes, I have a strong dislike for google software)

    Click on the view drop-down menu, go to the text-size submenu, and see what size the text is set for; choose a larger value on that submenu and see if that fixes your problem.

    Well done.

    But out of curiosity.

    Which suggestion was the one that solved the problem?

    they are all the same, except the chrome-supporters (funny people, those.. go firefox, go!! :)).

    it's just different ways to access that component for zooming. (keyboard shortcuts, menues.. he could've used ctrl-mousewheel, or the controls in the bottom right, too)

    Actuaully, it was the Dell dock theme that was creating the problem..
    Everytime I resize it, after I restart the IE then the same.
    So I had to uninstall the dell dock go green theme...
    too bad that I couldnot use that :(
    Also I prefer IE rather than chrome and firefox but I dont know why..

    It happened with me too. Then I switched to Opera, and everything worked great!
