Default Odd Font and Printer Behavior

Office 2003 Pro. I just installed Office 2003 on a system and "all of a
sudden" it has some very curious problems:

1. All Outlook email messages are displayed in 16 or 18 point font (when
they were sent in 10 point) and print out the same way. I tried saving a
message and looking at it in Word and indeed it was 10 point. Yet Outlook is
displaying and printing all of them in big font size. How can I fix this?

2. Internet Explorer displays its text in 30+ point and is virtually
illegible, with things on top of each other, etc. How can I fix this?

3. Finally, although three printers are defined on this system, only the
default printer is available from the print dialog when printing in any
Office tool. Moreover, the default printer is "grayed out." How to fix this?

By the way, I have already done a "detect and repair" on Office. Thanks and
God bless for any help you may give.

Problem fixed by using System-All Programs-Accessories-System
Tools-System Restore and restoring system to a previous day. All buggaboos
fixed.
