I am having problem with the font

I went to setting, and i set my font at default. always been like that. all of a sudden its coming out big bold letters and huge. However on my settings its says defualt aerial size 10 like it always was. Its happens when i am IMing people with cellphones as their AIM. I re-downloaded aim and its still happening.

I am not sure. when i type its normal, but when i press enter, its coming out bold and huge,

anyone knows the problem?

Are people telling you "WOAH YOUR FONT IS HUGE!!!!" Or are you just spazzing because it looks that way on your computer? If it's the latter, I wouldn't even worry about it. Try downloading an older version of aim? Or... get Trillian?

Well for starters, it's always a good habit to reboot your computer often. And to asnwer your question. It's probably not a virus issue. I would just download and install the newest version of AIM. Or if you're REALLY smart, download Pidgin.

http://www.pidgin.im/

It's a messanger client that lets you use all the messangers and accounts you have in one simple, small, and easy to use program. Pretty much you can be logged on with AIM, Yahoo, MSN, ICQ, and anything else you can think of at the same time. And it's easy to change your font xD

its actually happening to my computer. My other computer its all normal, but in this one my laptop its happening. It all started happening when I had to force turn off my computer by holding the power button. My AIM was running at that time, so im wondering if I screwed up some AIM font plug in or something

Example or my font

"This is like the size that is coming on my AIM and this bold like"

when it should be this size

Check your browser font settings, not just the AIM ones.

OMG DUDE THANK YOU SO MUCH. Now I just learned that AIM is some how connected with IE even though I never use it and I use fire fox. THe font size in my IE was somehow set to LARGEST. So i went to IE>view>text size> and set it to medium, and its fixed!


THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR HELP!
