You can specify the font sizes, styles, and
colors, and foreground and background colors of Web pages
displayed on your computer screen, even if the author of the Web
page has already specified these. You can also specify the color
used to indicate links in Web pages, or a special color for
links that is used only when the mouse passes over the link.
These customizations are useful if you have low
vision, need larger fonts, or need high-contrast colors. You can
set Internet Explorer to use the colors and fonts you specify,
the default Windows colors and fonts, or the settings you
specify in your own style sheet.
