Not related to your question, but...
You may need to update some plug-ins. Check your plug-ins and update as necessary:
- Plug-in check: https://www-trunk.stage.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
- Adobe Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in: Installing (or Updating) the Shockwave plugin with Firefox
- Adobe PDF Plug-In For Firefox and Netscape: Installing/Updating Adobe Reader in Firefox
- Shockwave Flash (Adobe Flash or Flash): Updating Flash in Firefox
- Next Generation Java Plug-in for Mozilla browsers: Installing or Updating Java in Firefox
In Options -> Content -> Fonts & Colors: Advanced..., you can choose a Minimum Font Size .
Making the text larger can break some layouts though, so you may find some information on zooming pages useful. This article also links to the No Squint add-on, which provides some more features for making the web easier to read.
Thanks a lot. Problem fixed. Thank you.
