AOL can be tricky with that stuff.
Might I suggest just one of the many freewares out there for zooming in? It makes it easy.
Here's just one site I found when I searched "freeware zoom"
http://www.dirfile.com/freeware/zoom.htm
I would like to add that if there are any personal feelings that have come of this thread, please take a moment before posting with high feeling/emotion.
good luck!
