My firefox browser updated itself yesterday and every time I surf the net and come onto the forums, the fonts are enlarged and different!

Any idea how I can get them back to how they used to be?

sounds like you are zoomed in

if you have a roller on your mouse, hold down CTRL on keyboard and roll the mouse.

Yes - that worked - sorted! Thank you very much!

Seems I have to do this with all of them separately, including the home page, set to google. But it works, and all back to normal now.

It's a nightmare isn't it, they've ruined Firefox, it messes with every website you visit.

If you google it, there are huge numbers of people complaining. it's supposed to be a "feature" but it's made Firefox unusable to me.

I gave up and went back to Firefox version 21, and will wait until they sort it.

I was using chrome and it started running so slow and rubbish, I gave firefox a try. I might go back to chrome but to be honest, this pc needs an engineer to completely clean it up and hopefully it will run faster.

Just cant afford the engineer!
