   You can do full zooming in WebSpeedReader--images, tables, and all--using the mousewheel, pressing the numpad + key for quick zooming, and by settig a default zoom.

   Try out WebSpeedReader. It uses multiple windows like a tabbed browser, but its document navigation and window management make it more efficient for reading news and search results. It takes a little time to get used to it, but well worth it, IMHO.

   WebSpeedReader is a good browser with unique features, including a loading and reading model that is better than tabbed browsing, in my opinion. Not nearly as customizable as Opera, but works pretty good.
   
   As for Microsoft and IE, or Windows, for that matter, it shows why we need to get rid of monopolies and prevent them in the 1st place. When Microsoft had to compete with Netscape, it was coming out with all kinds of innovations. Now that they own the market, they stopped. Nothing to propel them forward, especially since they don't sell it as a separate product. Even the development of Windows moves at a glacial pace. That's why we need competition.
   
   And what about monopoly prices. 37 private antitrust suits and a federal lawsuit that spanned years alleging that Microsoft overcharged for Windows, and now, Microsoft charges more for Windows than it ever has, even after consolidating it to 1 code base with Windows XP! This shows you what a complete waste the American legal system is. The lawyers get their fees, then they decide that it’s too much risk to litigate, to force Microsoft to lower the prices on Windows. But, of course, being able to charge monopoly prices is the reason Microsoft has worked so hard to become one, and thanks, to the American legal system with its emphasis on plain, old-fashion extortion, Microsoft will continue to gouge the public of billions for many years to come.
