Squirrely Web display

by jfradette . Updated 25 years, 2 months ago

I have one Gateway 2000 PC (450MHz / 128M RAM) running W98SE, IE 5.5 SP1 that has a peculiar prob. When the user visits one specific website the characters display disproportionately, while the rest of the page and all the boxes/buttons and graphicsare proportionate and display properly. Thru IE the TEXT SIZE under VIEW is set to small (was set to med.). This PC can print directly from this web page fine. It also copies/pastes from this web page into Word just fine.

Also, this PC can access all other websites just fine w/o any malformation of the alphanumeric characters. Other PC?s can access this same website with no problems. This PC has been treated to GW2K?s web-based software updates as well as Microsoft?s? web-based updates and every thing is as current as it gets. This PC is virus-free. I have been in contact w/the sites? tech support and they cannot help me.

I keep thinking the prob resides in the registry. I’ve dug around in the reg, but found nothing too odd.

Anytaker?s on this prob?
