Ok, with IE one has the option of increasing or decreasing the default browser window v v magnification. Old eye's need to magnify by 25% to view comfortably. 23" monitor so no lateral problems magnifying. But as yet have been unable to find similar option within Firefox.

Good grief what a clunky forum, but I eventually found the contribution button, an hour too late I might add. Anyways, my thanks to safebrowser for their prompt reply to my query.
