Why doesn't the Zoom setting stay where I set it?

Hello, I have just moved from XP to Windows 7 Home Premium. On XP, if I adjusted the home page to fill my screen, using the "View" and "Zoom" buttons it stayed at that size, even the next time I turned it on after shutting it down. Now the page won't even stay the same size during the same session. If I go to a site and then return to the home page, the page has reduced in size again. Can someone help me with this? Thanks, Barry

The Firefox Page Zoom feature does a domain by domain level of saving the users preferred zoom level settings, there is no default Page Zoom level setting in Firefox.

Try the Default FullZoom Level extension:

Or the NoSquint extension:
