Font way too small on here

The font size on CC posts is way too small to read without squinting hard. How do I fix this? It is only this site doing this.

A browser is a program that allows you to interact with the web, basically. So yes, IE is a browser.

In IE there is an option either on the top or in the right-click context menu that allows you to increase the size of all fonts. It should be labeled something like "text size." Try medium or large.
