This problem started about two months ago and I have been using Explorer to access e-mail. I have downloaded all updates and just downloaded 4.01. When trying to view Yahoo mail, all the fonts on the page are very small and I can not adjust the font size. It is so small I can hardly read it. Other pages are fine.

Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems: View > Zoom > Reset (Ctrl+0 (zero); Cmd+0 on Mac)

If the menu bar with the View menu is hidden then press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.

I tried the View + Zoom option. It didn't work at first, but had to uncheck the Zoom Text Only option. Even so, this only worked for the page I was on and reverted to the very small size when I went back to a previous page.

Why can't they have the similar options to Explorer?
