SYMPTOMS

   click Display.

2. On the Appearance tab, click Icon in the Item box.

MORE INFORMATION

Internet Explorer toolbar buttons are considered icons. Although these buttons are not affected by the Icon Spacing setting, the text for the buttons is affected by the Font Size setting. When you use a large font size in Windows 95, the toolbar button text in Internet Explorer may be too large to fit in the space provided.

This behavior can occur when you select a desktop scheme [such as Lilac (Large)] with a large font size.
