CSS makes text and images too large

[Bluecrab56]

After figuring out how to work the link colors in CSS, I re-published my site as XHTML with CSS. It works fine on my computer but my friend called me and said that now, on thier computer the text is huge and is now off the screen and so are the images. They use a dial up connection, Net Zero and they think ( I would have to go their house to confirm this ) the browser is IE.
Any ideas ?

Not sure what they're talking about, your site looks fine to me, no problems with text at all. Images look fine too.

Looks good. Here's the deal, I did allot of research on the problem of other ppl not being able to view a site the way you see it. I found out that even the Pro Designers struggle with this because allot of ppl don't update thier Browers, or have thier PC's configured in a funky way. Bottom line, you can't please them all, so don't let it drive you nuts

I ran into a couple of instances. First guy had changed the screen resolution to play some game and had not changed it back. He should have known better. Another fellow had his changed to enlarge everything because he was darn near blind. Can't fix that as far as I know. Since he was a friend I told him to fix the resolution and get a big magnifying glass.

Thanks for all the input. I just got back from their house and Dave nailed it. It turns out they have a widescreen monitor which they had set on a normal resolution ( so it did not strech the square picture they had set to background ?! ) All that was happening was the website in the browser now had a scroll bar at the bottom to go left and right ! After I fixed the screen resolution it worked perfectly.
With that said there is still a question. For that same website built WITHOUT CSS - it displayed in that resolution without a side to side scroll bar. This came up after I rebuilt site WITH CSS and then it displayed much wider in thier browser ? I see in the page inspector some settings called measurements > absolute pixels, absolute size, relative to font size and % of page width. Quess I have some test building to do.
Thanks for everyones input
