Question Massive letters on MS knowledge base

I have recently installed Office 2003 Pro, all is wonderful except.....
when I visit the Microsoft Knowledge base ALL the letters on the screen are so massive as to be totally unreadable ! On my screen, all I can see about 20% of a letter at a time ! Any ideas folks ?

livinginspain,

Start in IE by clicking on View >> Text Size and pick Medium.

If that does not work we will go into the options in Display Properties and Accessibility Options.

Take Care,

Richard

ms knowledge base

ref the size of these letters - I just tried to have look at an article on the MS knowledge base, the first page took up 188 pages of the 'print preview' selection I made ! That makes the letters pretty big , anound 150 feet I reckon ! is this a record ?

yes, all I get from the great gates empire is change the 'view' settings, not a great deal of use, however well intended ! I shall be taking them to task on the matter and will report back.
