Wait...now I've got a question and I'll bet someone here can answer it. I have IE6. Why is that that when I visit certain web pages (FreeRepublic is one) my text size changes? I like it at "smaller" but when I come to FR it switches to "Medium" and every now and then, on some sites, it'll switch to "Gigantic". Is this problem something in IE? Does anyone know how I can fix it?

I would guess it's a problem with IE, as I use Mozilla under Linux, and have not had that problem. I HAVE had that problem using Opera under Windows, though. Maybe it's a windows thing, rather than IE.

Why is that that when I visit certain web pages (FreeRepublic is one) my text size changes? If you have a scroll wheel mouse, here is the answer: While on FreeRepublic, hold down the control key while scrolling one click at a time. One direction will increase font size, the other direction will decrease it.
If you have no scroll wheel mouse, go to the top menu bar and click on "View" then down to "Text Size" and then select a font size from the drop down context menu.
I have no idea why the font is changing size but those are the fixes.
