I have IE6 and just installed XP SP2. Now when I open www.msn.com the font
size is bigger and I have no way of changing the size back to default. Some
pages come up with the correct font and size and some don't. What can I do
to fix this font issue.

I also have Mozilla Firefox and the fon't size in that browser is working
just fine.

Did you try (within IE)...

View, Text Size, Medium

That's what it should be by default.

Hi Ryan,

Check your settings here: IE/Tools/Internet Options/Accessibility:

Ignore font style on web pages and Ignore font size on web pages....

If that doesn't help, try the edit on line 227
