Don't you just LOVE the replies like the other one you got?
I have found "use font smoothing" which is supposed to make
fonts look better, makes them look horrible. I turned it off,
beautiful. There may be a separate setting for it in IE/OE.
Also, IE/OE is the most dangerous application in the world, so I
would highly suggest you experiment with another browser and
email/Usenet program(s).
For SIMPLE (no javascript or flash, no webmail etc.) and faster
than you can blink browsing, also 100% secure, try OffByOne. For
full-featured browsing I strongly suggest Opera. XNews for
Usenet and whatever you want for email. (Opera has both Usenet
and email built-in but I haven't used them. It IS the best
browser but I have heard varying things about those other 2
components. They are certain to be safer than anything MS makes
though).
