Web Site Displays

I just finally upgraded to Windows XP Pro and downloaded SP2. I also
downloaded SP2 for IE and my web pages are not displaying correctly. I am
getting overwrite on MSN.com and my other pages are not resizing to fit my
screen.

My display is set at 800x600 and my text size in IE is "smallest"

I am a neophite with XP (having used Windows 98 on all my machines up until
this time) and I know there is probably some field I have either checked or
unchecked that affects my web site display.

Any suggestions are bound to help.

Hi XP Rookie :-)

Try the following and see it helps:

Check in IE>Tools>Internet Options>General>Accessibility
and Control Panel>Accessibility Options>Display

For normal viewing nothing should be checked in these sections. Also check
the setting in Control Panel>Accessibility Options>Display is set to Windows
Standard and make sure the High Contrast is not checked.

Go to>View>Encoding
Make sure the Auto Select is not checked, and language you want to use is
selected.

Hope this helps.
