Tech ?
Today, somehow, I have done something and when I go to any website the fonts graphics etc.. are huge. What I am typing now is regular sized, all my regular computer programs are fine and aol's homepage is fine but all the text from Pixies, Google, Lit everywhere is huge. No being discreet this way  I looked at the settings for Aol, and my computer etc. Any clue what I did or how I can get it back the way it was? I can not remember doing anything unusual today.......Help!  |

Hey Lilith, If its what i think it is, Its pretty simple to correct! Simply open internet explorer, go to VIEW menu at the top, then select TEXT SIZE, make sure its at medium... thats it...
Let me know if this helps!

LOL, in my opinion, the best way to fix AOL is to remove it from your computer... but that's exactly the answer you should expect from a geek!  I do have the new AOL Gold 7.0 CD on my desk... and it makes for a nice coaster...

if you can't remember doing anything wrong, ie changing any settings, then i suggest you restart your computer.
if you have windows, then you may know that it gets random errors....

I was just about to suggest that Legend... let me modify your statement... if you have windows, then you may know that it gets frequent random errors....

this is sooooooo freaking me out. It is all better! Poof like magic! I goofed around in my preference settings but did not change anything....... I tried restarting it several times... I am familiar enough to know to do that but that is about it. Thanks to all of you for your help. I realize that I am still living in the technical dark ages but us immortal Demon Queen types are slow to change Thanks! |
