I love Firefox but hate the font as it is displayed. I know you can change the font appearance, but I can't seem to find the right font and size. I'd like it to look like it does in Internet Explorer if possible.

What font and size should I use?

Thanks in advance

Yes, all webpages look different but MN particularly so. The Tools/Options/Font box when I'm using Firefox says I am on Times New Roman 18 but it just looks more 'typewriter-y' (can't think how to explain it.)

I've fiddled around with different fonts and sizes but can't get it how I want it!

You can get a little dooley add on thing in firefox that goes on your toolbar and allows you to display any page in an IE tab. Tis invaluable when sites bolllocks up in firefox, and I also find sites including mn look different in ie, but I prefer the firefox look.

Actually the add on is ie tab

Ie looks more bold and a bit blurry to me, after using ff.

Thanks AbstractMouse - I have installed it but it doesn't look much different.

Maybe it's my eyes!

Hang on I've found it!! A tiny little icon hiding at the bottom of the screen!

Wahey!! Thanks for that.

(Yes it does seem a little blurry, not just my contact lenses drying out then!)
