Please help..

If you are using Internet Explorer select the View menu then Text Size and increase the size of text.

If you are on IE7 and have no menus go to the top right of IE and select Tools then the option Menu Bar and the menus should appear.

In Firefox it's also View > Text Size and you can choose to increase, decrease of reset to default.

It will only work on sites which use relative text sizes. Recent accessibility laws mean that most big sites and 'public service' sites (.gov, hospitals, councils etc.) should resize OK but lots of smaller sites and arty sites won't... It also won't work on Flash based sites (with lots of graphics and animation) or on text rendered as images.
