Oo. I'll try that when I get home. But that's strange that it would do that *only* in IE. All my other programs are fine.

I think it's something programs have to actively access in order to be resized, and most programs don't.

Looks like I was wrong.  I tried upping the DPI to 120 on my computer at home, and I couldn't reproduce the effect you're complaining about.

You know, since this is the thread to talk about IE, why is it that the only thing that crashes Internet Explorer is when I try to open more than one news article on MSN?  Doesn't that seem a little messed up?

No, actually, Eric, you were right. It works now.

EDIT: Nevermind, finally found out how to uninstall IE7. Life is good.

Does IE7 finally render alpha-channel transparent PNGs correctly now?

A test page:

All Saiyuki fans should check out Dazzle! Emotionally wrenching action-adventure and quirky humor! (At least read chapter 6 and tell me if you're not hooked.) Volume 10 out now!
