My internet explorer has suddenly gone strange!
Some of my pages have developed "Large Font Syndrome" while others remain normal.
This site is kind of in the middle. The majority is normal sized but the name of anyone who has been quoted in a post is large font!

I haven't changed any settings. I have run a virus check, ad-aware and rebooted everything.

Some parts of pages have hard coded font sizes, nothing to worry about.

You probably accidentally did it by pressing CTRL and moving your mouse wheel at the same time.
