IE Surfgear tools description.  IE Surfgear adds three new buttons on the Internet Explorer toolbar. Each of them is a special tool, which removes a particular problem from a web page loaded into your browser. All that problems arises not due to Internet Explorer, but due to many web masters fail to use its features wisely and correctly. Here is a detailed description of IE Surfgear buttons: Reset font sizes, which cannot be changed by user. Normally, if you think, that text size in your browser window is too small or too large, you can easy change it using Internet Explorer menu "View ==> Text Size", or a special toolbar button: . However, it is possible for web designer to disable this feature. He can specify font size so, that it always looks the same regardless of user settings. Sometimes it may be really useful, but unfortunately many webmasters use it without any reason. It often causes problems. For example, if your monitor resolution is better than webmasters one, most fixed fonts will look too small. Here you can read more about font size issue, including some technical detais for web masters. Now, you can use IE Surfgear to increase font size in such case. When you press the button, IE Surfgear scans web page for the elements, which have fixed font sizes and resets their font size attributes to default. Usually, it is enough to make text readable, and if not, now you can change text size in a common way as described above.
Simply resets text and background colors to default. A few webmasters, for example, prefer white text on dark background. If you dislike it, use this IE Surfgear button to remove such offensive colors.
Removes images and textures from text background. I remember the old days, when background image feature was first introduced in Netscape Navigator browser. It was looking like every webmaster that time had a feeling of duty to use this feature. Later people realized, that an image behind a text makes it difficult to read, and fortunately now it is used rather rarely. However some webmasters still use this feature. Now you can use IE Surfgear to remove it in a single click.
