Firefox is a lot nicer than IE in my opinion. You can tweak it to make it a lot faster, and it seems to be a lot less troublesome than IE7. I can't stand how slow IE is compared to FF.

Nothing beats Firefox in my opinion. If it has anything to do with Microsoft, there are most likely problems with it. I have been using Firefox for about 4 years and have never had any issues like I used to with the other browsers.

The only thing I can find by looking around is the green wheel chair for the handicap accessibility . I found in the themes were you could change the text size but only of that of the tops of the windows nothing to do with the internal letters. Whats your screen resolution set at? cancel that Ctrl and the wheel working here on accident back towards you is bigger in to the wall is smaller.

Quite frankly, I'm at a loss as to why some text is affected and some text isn't. The only thing I can think of is possibly your default text style for posts is not the usual standard and isn't affected by the Ctrl-Mousewheel trick.

WOW! Got it!!!!!! Had downloaded FoxFire but not selected it for Primary Net Server. (It's a born before computers "thingy" )

Thanks to all...especially TomW (love your Sig.). Your being adamant about it working made me retrace all steps!

I was also born before a Cummins was ever put in a Dodge, but that has never been a problem like organizing a new computer.

Sorry Guys...another question!
Logging on to DTR (using FoxFire) now requires me to LOG IN each time? Not a biggy but different. Is this Foxfire, something new at DTR, or something I have not set up properly.

You probably have the cookies set to "never". You need to either allow cookies globally (easy but not the best) or set an exception for DTR. Click on "Tools", "Options", and "Privacy". You will see the "Exceptions" button next to the cookie options.

I have mine set to allow cookies but to ask me every time. That way for sites I won't be back to or don't want a cookie from I can deny it.
