Internet Explorer 7 display problems for one user


Recommended Posts

I created a fresh install of Win XP for a single user. After a few weeks,

her web pages are not displaying properly: MSN has white backgrounds (the

colors are all wrong), fonts are large or in the wrong format, pictures are

likewise not in the right locations. I installed a second user, and the web

pages display properly. I have check these items: display settings, font

size in the video properties, visualy impaired accesability options (I

think), and font sizes in IE 7.

 

I know that it is definately something that she inadvertantly changed, or

installed, on a user basis, but how do I find it? If anyone has seen this

before, please let me know.

RE: Internet Explorer 7 display problems for one user

 

For anyone who is having this same issue, I finally (after months of speratic

unsucessful attempts) found the answer to my own qestion on the IE7 newsgroup:

 

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/newsgroups/reader.mspx?dg=microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6.browser&mid=c677d7d0-ff6e-4da0-af8d-c9d48f94cb19&sloc=en-us

 

Start>Control Panel>Accessability Options>Display (in Tab)> Uncheck High

Visability option

 

This reset all visability problems, then just varified that the font size

and XP display color schem were set back to defaults.

New to these newsgroups, but enjoying the information that I am finding. :)
