Some fonts appear small and faded, not sure why, and I can't find any options anywhere in Windows that remedy the problem. I run WinXP Professional and I have a Radeon 9500 if that might have something to do with it...I'll show you what I'm talking about:

you can kind of see what im talking about there, if you guys need another example, just tell me, most webpages are full of them!

Another thing to note: Those small, bad, evil fonts disappear when I tell IE to ignore webpages styles, but it also messes up everyother font because of its nature.
 
I dont see the problem in the image, how about cropping the image and zooming in on the problem for us? :)
 
Go to the view menu in IE.
Change the text size to "Medium" and the encoding (font) to "Western European". Those are the defaults, that should look right. Hope that helps.

That was it Matt, I feel like a real *** for not seeing that. So Chris, if you want to see what happened, go to view-> text size -> smallest, then you can enjoy what I endured for a good half an hour, thanks again.
