IE will not keep the text size that I set it to. It keeps going back to medium. Am I missing a setting somewhere?

If you have a wheelmouse just hold down the ctrl key and roll up or down to resize.

That only changes the size when I am in IE. When I restart my computer and the first 5 times or so it comes up as the medium text size and I have to change it each time.

On my version of IE (6-beta), click on 'view'; 'text size'

If you choose the one you want there and then exit & return will it save your selection?

Go to control panel, internet options, advanced tab, press the restore defaults button. Restart computer.

Case closed!

That solved my problem for the first few times I started up IE. I still have the wrong text size.

Try this. Go to Control Panel/ AddRemove Programs. Select IE and click the AddRemove button. Choose the repair option. Good luck!

better yet-

go to the registry

and delete the following keys:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Internet Settings

If all those dont work just remove the program and run the setup, this is really easy and sure to solve your problem.
