How Do you increased Font on Windows Vista?

I'd like to increase my font on my desktop as well when I go online to my
internet service American online. I don't want to increase my Icon on my
desktop, just the font to a larger size.

I own a HP new notebook and the font on both the desktop and on the
internet is just too small. My notebook carries Windows Vista.

So is it possible to increase the font size on both the desktop and on the
internet?

Hi Blackmurano,

This tutorial will show you how you can change the font size (and more)
for most of the Items in Vista.

In IE7, look at the bottom right corner for a "100%" with a drop down
arrow next to it. Click on it to change the zoom level in IE7's display
window. It will default back to 100% when you close IE7.

For web sites displayed within IE7 you could press the CTRL key and turn
the mouse wheel (if you have one).
