I'm using a dell laptop with Windows Home Vista Premium. Everything (Not just internet) is extremely large. How do I fix this?

Change your resolution. Right click anywhere on your desktop and select personalize. Click on Desktop settings and move the resolution from low to high. That should fix your large icon problem.

I suggest you take off the bifocals and everything should return to normal size.

Thanks man. It's perfect now.
66: I don't have bifocals yet, but with my eyesight, they probably aren't too far off.

Ok, now I'm having the same problem again, but it's just my icons. Like firefox, adobe reader, internet explorer, etc. They are very large, but it is just my desktop icons.

It's probably in there somewhere but my knowledge of vista is limited, sorry.
Edit: glad to see you found the fix, you're welcome.
