When typing, the website page itself enlarges... I click CTRL and " - " to reduce the size. Or " + " to enlarge if I overdo it! My previous laptop did the same thing, and I'm now having the same issue with my new one. This problem started a few days ago and am wondering what I did to cause this. It's annoying to say the least. Hopefully,there is a solution. Thanks

You may have zoomed web page(s) by accident, either by holding the Ctrl key while rotating the mouse wheel or via Ctrl and '+' or Ctrl and '-' or maybe you can trigger this via a touch pad.

Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems.
