Yesterday, I was on my email Outlook Express....I'm not sure why, but the font became very small. I can't figure out how to make it a larger font so it will be easier to read.

What does the font size on Outlook Express have to do with Firefox?

Hotmail (Windows Live) has changed to an Outlook website for managing the email, so it is likely that the OP is referring to these pages.

Philipp,

Thank you very much...You saved me....It went back to the original font. You're a life saver. It was really bugging me.  :0) Carol v

Note that you might have changed the page zoom via the keyboard shortcuts "Ctrl + +" and "Ctrl + -" or with the mouse scroll wheel when you pressed the Ctrl key.

Yes, I'm using a mouse, but the thing in the middle (I can't think what that's called) is not inoperative. That's probably what I touched without realizing it. Philipp's control +0 fixed the problem. Thanks for your input as well. Carol V
