Default my MF font size suddenly shrank in Firefox. Is there a fix?

After a few weeks of lurking and posting here, one evening my MF font suddenly shrank... a lot. Where it used to be comfortable and easy to read through this forum, now I almost have to squint. I'm not just talking about my own posts; everything is tiny--other people's posts, the menu bar across the page, anything and everything that is displayed anywhere on the screen. It is annoying.

For what it's worth, I am not seeing this problem with any of the other forums I visit daily. I use Firefox 17.0.1 for all my browsing. Just for a test, I tried logging in via IE 9.0x and the font is the normal larger size there. ???

I looked through the menus, options, control panel, etc but I cannot find any way to change this setting. Am I missing something? Please tell me there is a way to restore my larger font size.

I've noticed something like this at work with the people I support. There may be an option in Firefox, under 'view' possibly, called 'actual size' or just 'bigger'.

Try adjusting the zoom on your firefox browser.

While holding down Ctrl, press the plus key for bigger and minus key (while holding down Ctrl) for smaller. To get back to normal, do Ctrl and zero.

I tried pressing ctrl-zero and--presto!--we're back to normal. Thanks!

BTW: LOL at your larger font size.
