Somehow without knowing it, I've enlarged my screen size so that when I'm on
any websites, they are enlarged and don't fit on the viewing screen ... I
have to scroll over to see the right margin, etc.
I have tried fixing font size in the control panel, but it doesn't help. I
also tried using the zoom feature on the tools drop down menu, but it is a
temporary fix at best.
Could anyone please help with this? Thanks!

If this is only in a browser, you've probably enabled something in
Accessibility Options. Go to that applet in Control Panel and uncheck
everything.

If this is throughout your computer (other applications), go to the Display
applet, Settings tab and set your resolution to the right one for your
monitor.

Hi, go to view on the internet and you will see text size and click on that
and you will see different sizes to your needs.

Does that do the same thing as holding down CTRL and rotating the mouse
wheel?
