Is he allowed to install software and update?
I have downloaded, installed, run and like very much Internet Explorer version 7 Beta 2 (preview)
Also, in place of the "old" firefox I have downloaded, installed, run and like very much 'Bon Echo' (Firefox 2)
You're a genius. Thanks for sharing the solution. I gather solutions (looking for a problem) because of providing tech support on a campus (higher education).
I do the same thing!!! I work on a college campus as well, and am constantly scouring message boards for random fixes. I found the answer tho this one in a google group.... If you ever want to share solution finds, let me know...
Thanks for the reply... he is allowed to install actually. I had him update to IE 7Beta and no luck. I did some more research on it yesterday and foudn out that some latitudes and inspirons are set to the 160 DPI instead of the 96 DPI. By setting the monitor back to 96 DPI and then rebooting the machine, the problem was fixed!
