right click on the desktop. From the list that appears click on
"Properties", choose "Settings" and set the
size slider bar to 800 X 600. (Note: this will change your monitor
settings so be sure that your video card is capable of this change
before executing this command)
The
font size in your browser should also be set to "smaller"
and the font type to "Arial" for best results. If you are not sure how to change this, it has been outlined
for you below.

- Choose "View" from the top navigation bar. Then
select on "Text Size", and choose "smaller"

and select increase or decrease text (or use the CTRL key plus
the [ & ] keys). If you are using Netscape 6.0 you will
