I like Firefox. Actually, I really don't see a huge difference
using it
as compared to IE.
The only annoying issue with it is setting the text size. You can
increase or decrease it easily from the default, but you have to
do it
every time the program starts. It would be nice if it could be
set and
stay set even after closing and then restarting Firefox.

Are you aware of CRTL and minus key, CRTL and plus key. They easily
change the text size up or down.
Yes, and that's what I do. It sounds stupid and lazy, but I wish
there was
a way to keep it from defaulting back to the "normal" size every
time you
open Firefox. No big deal, but it's the only complaint I have with
the
program.

In the address window of the browser type:
about:config
and hit your enter key. You'l be presented with a few zillion
preference settings for the browser including default font size.
I don't know which one it is off the top of my head, but most of them
can be figured out. Any settings you change will become BOLD, so they
are easy to find again if you decide you chose the wrong setting and
want to change it.
WOW! Thanks.
I need to go back and study it for a while but I suspect the solution
to my complaint is there.

If that doesn't work out, you can always just buy a bigger monitor! LOL
OR you can go into the OS appearance/settings and make a subtle change
or two that will resolve the problem on a permanent basis.
Harry,
I understand you are the computer expert in the NG, and Vista might be
different, but that does not change your font size of the web page
itself in WinXP.
