Windows Live Messenger Fonts too big after reinstall by Butcher_ss on 06-09-2009 at 12:32 PM

I just re-installed Windows this morning and after i installed everything i went to install Windows Live Messenger 9.0 (14.0.8064.206). Then i don't know why the fonts are much bigger than before i reinstalled windows. Generally speaking all the fonts are bigger than before, including the Contact names, contact status, my personal message and my name. I don't know what the problem is but now the problem is also on my hotmail inbox. The fonts are bigger than normal and different. Has anyone seen this before? I'd hate to reinstall windows for this issue but i get frustrated when things are not the way i want them. I am on Windows XP Pro with IE8. Here are a couple of screenshots of what i mean:

Problem fixed, apparently it didn't like the fact that i used the standalone installer and didn't install the SEGOI or something like that font, so it used another font.

In fact, it is Segoe UI, Vista's default font =)
