Question Picture Magnified

Hi All:

All of a sudden every picture I open is larger than my screen resolution ( Magnified )

My Desktop is normal.

I checked my settings and they haven't changed ( 1440 x 900 )

On the web, everything is magnified by about a 1/3 bigger.

I haven't changed any settings that I know of.

Yesterday IE 7 was automatically updated to IE 8

My System ...
WinXP Pro, Service Pack 3

Any thoughts what I should do to get my 1440 x 900 pictures to be viewed at the resolution that my setting are set at?

Problem solved.

In IE , View, Zoom was set to 150%, set it back to 100%, back to normal now.

I would like to know how it got changed, I didn't do it.

The main ways of changing it are through the magnifying glass icon at the bottom or through the Page icon at the top (under Zoom in the dropdown). A shortcut you might have hit though is holding down the Ctrl key and scrolling the center scroll wheel on the mouse. Short of one of those 3 ways though, I don't know of any others.
