out of nowhere, the look of my computer screen has changed.  everything has shrank, the font is tiny, almost too small to read.  

I didn't do anything to my knowledge to cause this, but cant figure out how to fix it.

any help is appreciated

Screen resolution got changed I'd bet.

Do things look smaller but sharper?

cntrl plus scroll wheel is my guess, any rez changes are hard to do accidentally

Does holding the CTRL key + scrolling up with the mouse wheel fix the problem?

what everyone else said...

Control Panel->appearance and personalization->under display click text size.....

Also is it the entire OS or just the browser?

Hold down ctrl and scroll up or press the + key.

Ctrl + would only zoom browser, not desktop or native apps right?
