hey all, best place for a good quick awnser so, . . ive just put my computer on and the resolution on my internet window it messed up.

was fine this mornin but now when you open internet explorer everything is massive, pages are twice as big. . . like text, icons etc. . . everything is normal on my desktop and other programs. . .

any one kno how to get back to norm??

bottom right of browser window shud have 100% in a little box. It sounds like yours is set to a greater zoom level. Right click to change it.

¿Does Internet Exploder have a zoom feature like Firefox's? If so, go to View->Zoom and make it smaller.

You want to be using a decent web browser like Firefox and not that turdy thing.

Ctrl and 0 resets your screen to normal size in a PC browser - think they all use it although I haven't used IE in a long time.

legend m8 exactly it, was at 150. . . god knows how thankyou
god i love this site



so many m8s been telling me to dude but not really great with these technical watchamajiggys. been using IE for ever and think thats my first, all be it, minor problem.


e2 typo

if you accidentally hold down ctrl and use your mouse scroller button that can change the size as well.

It's as easy as downloading it from the link here - Firefox - running it to install it, and from then on, you simply click 'Mozilla Firefox' to go on the web instead of the 'Big Blue E'. Simples.

It's a *miles* better browser - lots less prone to infection, and you can also soup it up with handy plugins like Adblock Plus which means that you never have to suffer looking at another annoying advert on the web ever again.

chrome is a good alternative too

Chrome's not got plugins or adblocking though, so you have to run it with a proxy like BFilter (what I use) or Proximitron to filter the junk out.

Just to say that as a complete techno-phobe, I found getting Firefox and installing it just soooooo easy. And I haven't looked back. Its streets ahead of IE, and even beats Safari, which is what I am using now on my Mac.
Firefox - its the biz

+1 from another computer luddite
