Hi All,

Currently using W2K active directory with a number of XP and W2K clients.

Looking to find a way to set the default font in Internet Exlorer to Arial instead of the MS default which is Times New Roman. Preferably in the Group Policy.

I know how to disable the user's ability to change the font, but really need to know how to default it.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks
 
Have a look at IE/ Tools/ Internet Options/ and down at the bottom of the page is a tab for Fonts.
 
Not sure about GP but you can edit this in the registry, if you put this into a reg file and push it through GP then you should be ok.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\International\Scripts\3
