One of my user is having problem with Internet Explorer. IE is currently running 6.0 version with sp2. User is able to browse Internet without any problem, but if she goes into msn.com or mapquest.com, size of fonts and images gets very big. I can change settings or font through view menu but I have to change it manually everytime I go into those websites. I tried system restore and internet options. Can someone please help me how I can configure these settings?

It sounds as if you have some fonts missing and its trying to match the fonts on web to missing system ones and getting it wrong.

Normally you would used Latin based fonts and use Courier New for those plain text fonts.

Thank you for answering this question for me. Maybe I should've mentioned it in more detail, but when I mentioned I tried changing fonts under internet options, I have tried changing Latin based fonts and used courier new. As I have mentioned, problem only happens on msn.com and mapquest.com (as far as I know, only msn-based websites only)
