Oversized Fonts

Since upgrading to Vista, the fonts on some pages are quite large and overlap onto
other print on the page. I have tried all the standard text resizing techniques
but nothing seems to help. Anyone else having this problem? At times the lettering
covers boxes or other things that need to be filled in. I also cannot scroll down
to the bottom of some pages because the fonts take up so much space that the page
is filled. Please help me correct this annoyance. Thanks in advance.

Carl -
any common threads to what proggies do not adhere to your font resizing?
Are they old, are they shareware and may have their font size hardcoded and ignore
the global settings that you have tried to crrect this?
Are they Logo'd as a Vista capable version?
This may help us help you

Thanks for your response but I really have no idea what you are trying to explain
to me. I guess I need specific directions in order to do what you are asking. I
have the oversized fonts on some web sites but not on others. All of this occurs
on Internet sites and not on any shareware that I might be using.
