I have installed InternetExplorer 7 on several systems.
In most cases i de-activated ClearType font rendering in the browser as well as in the WinXP system.

On one system however, the font quality is still very bad and hardly readable although there is no clearType avtive.

The system is a notebook from Medion (md95400) this is a mobile PentiumM 735,
1 GB of RAM and a graphic chip with 128MB AGP 4x (Radeon 9600)

So there should not be any hardware problems...

Does anyone know what causes this ?
And how to solve it?

Another problem :

in IE7 i can no longer use Telnet.

When i start an URL with TELNET://
it tells me that the url is not available.

I can help myself by directly starting the HyperTerminal, but can i get IE7 to use HyperTerminal as default telnet client ?

greetings, from Dresden in Germany

Native resolution of the display? Are you running it?

Try doing this from Windows Explorer (My Computer).  For some reason
Microsoft decided that IE should ONLY be a web browser. You can't use FTP://
URLs either.

Yes, i am using the exact native resolution of the external monitor of the notebook, in my case
1280x1024.

Tnx. indeed a strange behavour. in earlier versions of IE you could chose how IE handled FTP and TELNET...
