Especially applicable for Accessiblity and "maturing eyes" issues. An atypical, magnanimous gesture from MS (free of charge) and it's yours Here _____________________________ Larry M.

Not sure what the download does as you've always been able to activate it via the control panel... at least in mine - haven't you? _____________________________ "My strategy is so simple an idiot could have devised it" Little Blue Plane Web Design \| Blood, Sweat & Rust - A Land Rover restoration project (in reply to Larry M.)

Is this a fix for that? If so, is this the new MS tack. Noooo no bugs in IE but here's a nice little add-on for you.

I switched the cleartype off in IE7 - it was hurting my eyes! _____________________________ "My strategy is so simple an idiot could have devised it" Little Blue Plane Web Design \| Blood, Sweat & Rust - A Land Rover restoration project (in reply to jaybee)

I found on some displays it actually makes it worse whereas on others it helps. _____________________________ Don't take you're eye off your final destination. ASP Checkbox Function Tutorial.

Adjustments are offered including a deselect switch. Wow! Just noticed I have 1974 posts. Gaining rapidly on DPF (where are you, Dan?) and jaybee. Har, har. _____________________________ Larry M.
