You can increase the font display size in Internet Explorer by clicking
on "View|Text Size"

Control Panel-Display-Appearance tab-Advanced button. Advanced button gets a
second dialog box with options to change all aspects of your display
including typeface size and style. NOTE: Be sure to write down old settings
on a separate sheet of paper for any item BEFORE making any changes to it.

Get to display area by either
(1) Go to START > Settings > Control Panel > display >
double click the display icon > display box opens
OR
(2) Go to desktop > right click on mouse > properties > display box opens
then in either method :-
select "settings" tab and have a look
at the figures in the box at the left

What screen resolution are you using
ie 640x480 OR 800x600 OR 1024 x 768 OR some other.

IF you work above 800x600 then things can be faily small .

So if you are higher than 800x600 try setting the little gliding pointer
back to the left to select 800x600 and then ensure the color settings on
right
are the highest ie 16 bit OR 24 bit Or 32bit if shown but use the
highest such as 32 bit if available.
Then hit apply and reboot if it tells you to and hopefully you will have
larger things.
