HUGE font!

Hello all!

Now, this problem is going to sound trifling to many of you, but to me, it is so annoying!

For no apparent reason today, some web pages I view is in a HUGE, LARGE text. I cannot think how I can get it back to a normal size. It's like one of those extra large font books for the visually impaired.

It's not all web pages, but PPRuNe is one of them.
And it was fine and 'normal' yesterday! Today, it's large day.

I would be grateful if anyone can help me with this. I am sure it is a simple process, but at the moment, it's like living in Toy Land!

Regards,
SS

SS - you need to give a bit more info so the experts can help you!

Can you give us the operating system (and version)/internet provider/monitor settings + any changes/installs/updates you have done before this happened?

The very first thing to try (in IE) is View -> Text Size - what is it set to? It's very easy for this setting to get changed by accident if you press CTRL while moving the scroll wheel.

Thank you both very much.
