I have no idea how This happened, but everything Text related on my Desktop and in IE is now all BOLD . I can't seem to figure out how it got this way(i never changed anything but someone else might have been on here.
I can't find how to turn it back.

XP 32 , SP3.

Any ideas lol?

It's a setting somewhere.... but sometimes a System Restore is the fastest way to resolve a problem.

First. right click on desktop, choose properties and then the appearance tab. Adjust your fonts there. If that don't work look for the 'true type' applet in the control panel and adjust it there.

Only "bold text" setting I can find is under display properties/appearance/advanced but that seems to only be related to the message box text, not to global text. (I'm lucky enough if I can remember to hit F11 when my browser accidentally goes into full screen mode.... :) ).

Let us know what you find.
