    Question This is a wierd one

    I installed a wheel mouse and while I was messing with it, it or something else changed the size of the text with in internet explorer. The header at the top of the screen in the same size it was and all the banner ads are the usuall size but all the text is smaller. Any ideas on how I can fix this? I tries all the usuall stuff including uninstalling the mouse drivers. By the way I am running IE5 on win98 1st release.

    Have you tried uninstalling and installing again Internet Explorer?
    Looks to me that it's the easiest and harmless thing you can do...

    No, don't do that. Just click View, Text size, Medium. If medium isn't right, try a different one. This happened because of the various uses that the wheel has in IE. By itself, it scrolls. With Shift, it goes back/forward. With Control, which is what you must have done, it "zooms in/out" by changing the text size.

    When I hear someone say they give "110%" to whatever they're doing, it makes me feel good inside, because I know I'm not as big a moron as that person is.
