    Default Computa question.

    Hello fellow citizens,

    For some reason when I google the results are being displayed so small I cant hardly read them.

    Gremlins... or my eyesight has taken a turn for the worse.

    I have tried to rectify the prob by going into settings, preferences etc but can't seem to find the right place to change it back.

    Any suggestions?

    It would help immensely if you said which browser you are using.

    No, that is the operating system.

    The browser is something like Firefox , Opera, Internet Explorer etc

    Bleedin', if you are not aware of it - holding the CTRL key and scrolling the mouse will zoom in and out in IE. Sometimes it is done by accident leaving people wondering what happened (DAMHIKT).

    If he's discovered computer games - he will be wanting the new computer, not your fossil!

    Also works in Firefox. (Of course I tried! ) Wonder if it works for embedded gfx as well? Time to have a fiddle, methinks...
