All evening I have had issues viewing auction listings on Ebay; the font size is HUGE. Looks like 150%. I do not have this on any other web site, it does not look to be an issue I can adjust using my own computer settings.

Is anyone else getting this? I might add that the Help screen for Ebay displays at the default size. It's just the listings and also the MyEbay. This has to be a system issue. I cannot find any mechanism on help and contact to report it. Comments welcome, it is driving me nuts.

Ebay is fine for me.

In case you may have accidentally hit the keys wrong, have you tried pressing CTRL and then the minus key to shrink the size of the screen?

Thanks, that worked.

Strange that it was only enlarging the font on the one web site. Anyway it's normal now.

CTRL and scroll wheel on the mouse has the same effect.

As this function was new to me, I was just now playing around with it. When you have multiple tabs open in your browser, CTRL/Scroll/Zoom only affects the tabs that are open to that same web site. That is, I had 5 tabs open to Stamporama (5 different forum posts opened) and each one zoomed in or out along with the active Stamporama tab. 3 other tabs, opened to 3 other sites, were not affected.
