>>>>>I don't know if this is in some way connected but after I installed Google Toolbar on this IE 8, the UT font appear to be very small. The area of the message (where I am typing now) is only half of the screen. Before I installed Google toolbar the message area was normal (to full screen) and the font was reasonably large. What could be done to make the message area and fonts back to normal?

Hmm, you may be using the zoom feature to compensate for something the Google Toolbar did.

In IE what is your default text size (View...Text Size)? If that has changed from the default "Medium" that might explain what you're seeing, too.

After you installed the toolbar, were any sites other than UT affected? What do other sites look like at 100%?
