I recently bought a refurb computer with Vista on it and so far its great except for one minor problem. Some websites will have different font sizes then normal (usually smaller) One site looks like the computer is in safe mode when I visit it.
I set the monitor's resolution at 600X800 and it was fine for several days then it started acting up. When it first happened I could shrink or expand websites with the wheel on my mouse. My computer is fully updated.
My Mom bought a new laptop with Vista on it and she said she has a similar problem. She said the font on her screen shrinks on its own to the point where she can't read it.

Anybody familiar with this issue?

In IE click in the upper right corner of the toolbar, "Page" then "Compatibility view settings" check the "Display all websites in Compatibility View" box.

Restart IE.;)
