I don’t know what the Hell I hit, but everything is in a font made for Sight-impaired people. What the hell did I do?!?

hmm probably view|Text Size|Medium (on IE(version 6, anyways)) should fix it, unless you used windows to increase the size…

Start|Control Panel|somewhere where you set your desktop theme… what version of window do you have, assuming you have windows? if not, and it’s not an IE problem, I can’t help…

Do you have a wheel mouse?

If so hit Ctrl + wheel up.

No worries.

The Ctrl button was probably stuck when you used the wheel to move the page down. It works both ways.
