IE Resolution Question

So, i am the the gfs parents house and for some reason the resolution of pictures and such inside IE sucks. Outside, such as through the picture viewer, everything is fine, and i cant figure out how to change it. Can anyone help?
It is windows EX, with Version 6.0 of IE and they use MSN Dialup to connect.

Do they have dial up with accelerator? That can turn the res to crap.

Ugh, what a freakin' scam. For a while I thought they had actually found a way to boost the bandwidth of the dialup connection ... how wrong I was.

when you view the pictures in IE, does it scale them to fit in the window? If so, that can distort the picture and make it look grainy.

try going to tools, option, advanced, restore defaults, that might clear it up.

Accelorator lessens the res on pics to make the info move faster. It's a total scam unless you don't care about pic quality. They're paying extra for those bad images.
