Why does site appear larger in IE?

[RonSanSolo]

Is this something new with IE8, but I've noticed that sites appear a bit larger than they do in Firefox. As if the site is somewhat stretched.

In Firefox the sites look great. But in IE, images can look a bit fuzzy because the site seems like it's stretched larger.

Is this a resolution issue? Does anyone know why this is happening, and is there a fix for this?

Thank you.

Check you zoom setting, it sounds as if it's larger than 100%

Thank you!!
It looks like that was the issue. But I've never adjusted the Zoom setting, so why would it be other than 100%?

Also ... where do I change the settings in IE so that every page defaults to 100%?

Thank you,
Ron

It may be the zoom setting issue, i never faced this issue while working with forfox or IE8
