I want to know how you can get the web page font larger? I know I go to view and increase but how do I get it to stay larger. My wife doesn't see very well and doesn't want to have to keep changing it every time she goes to the internet.

use the keyboard: hold the CTRL key down whilst repeatedly pressing + or - to go up and down in size.

OR

from 'Tools' menu choose 'Options...' and on the 'Content' tab in the 'Fonts & Colors' section set your desired font size there.

Why doesn't she try the magnifier.

Start > All Programs > Accessories > Accessability > Magnifier

That way she will still be able to view the site, as normal, but use the Magnifier at the top for any small text.
