I recently started using Firefox and it makes Arfcom look different than IE did. Does anyone know how to set the fonts to do the same look as Internet Explorer. I checked the little mark to allow the website to pick its own font but it still looks rather different from IE.

Thanks,

Play around with the font and size until you are happy. ARFCOM looks the same in both for me, so I don't know what else to tell you.

Pretty much, that.

I'm going to assume you've changed your default IE settings, or inadvertantly changed Firefox, because my font/size/look is identical also.

You can hold ctrl and use the mouse scroll to change font size, maybe you did that by accident? Try rolling it back one with firefox as the active window.

The only difference I see is the font size is smaller in IE.

Your font size is all jacked off.

Well, I uninstalled and then reinstalled Firefox and it is still the same, so I guess I will just get used to it. I like firefox better, but the font thing sucks.

Hold the Ctrl key down while you scroll your mouse-wheel.  One way will make the font bigger and one will make it smaller.

To increase font size: CTRL and numlock +


To decrease font size: CTRL and numlock -

I did change the size and it still looks like crap and then all of the other websites look weird too. On a side note I went to wikipedia and it is unreadable (when I say that I mean it is difficult to read) in Firefox.
