I upgraded my PC to Internet Explored 7.0. When the upgrades were done, my fonts changed. Some lettering on the screen looks blurry and sort of shadowed. Does anyone know the process to adjust this? I have Windows XP.
Thanks, Ken |

Ken,
Try typing with two hands then your other hand isn't doing what is making you blind! |

Good one, guys. Both hands are on the wheel and I'm looking straight ahead. Sounds like you guys have a mission for Myth Busters.
Now, does anyone know what adjustments to make to get rid of this fuzz? Robert Hemlock |

"Right Click" on your blank desktop. Go to "Properties" then to the "Settings" tab. Adjust the screen area as needed.

Thanks, Kurt, I tried that and no luck. I ended up dumping the 7.0 IE and went back to my regular screen.

did you look at the resolution setting when the software was installed? And if you move away from the computer a little the monitor won't shake.

Here is the resolution to your problem: Clear Type Fonts in IE 7.0
Or, you could download and use a good browser like Mozila Firefox |

especially my second recomendation.
Firefox is a great browser with some awesome features (like spell check). way ahead of IE in my opinion. |
