Ignore Colors, Font Styles, or Font Sizes Specified on Web Pages

You can turn off default colors, font styles, and font sizes specified by Web authors and set Internet Explorer to use alternate settings you select. If the author of a Web page chooses different colors or font styles, the settings you choose will override them. But, first, follow this procedure to set Internet Explorer 6 to ignore colors, font styles, and font sizes specified on Web pages through Internet Options in Control Panel.
