Computer Question (re: Font size)
I was on my computer last night moving from page to page and program to program (multi-tasking). All of a sudden I looked up to see that the font size on my Internet had become smaller. I must have accidently pushed some button that caused this to happen, but I don't know what I did. How can I get the font size on my Internet back to where it used to be?

6. Yeah, sorry. I was a bit non-specific.
I screwed my font up accidently doing that once. Scrolling up and down on a page and accidentally hitting the ctrl key. Then couldn't figure it out for a long time and had to ask on DU:)

4. If you're using Internet explorer-
Go to "view" at the top of the screen, pull down the drop-down menu and select "text size". You have various size options there!

5. click on VIEW
go down to text size and pick one. NOTE this set the Standard text size, some html overrides it.
