    Hi, I've got a HP laptop with a touchpad that keeping automatically resizing the font in web browsers etc. I had a look at the mouse/touchpad options, but there doesn't seem to be any way to turn if off. I'm not sure exactly what I'm pressing when I resize the font, I'm not doing it deliberately, but I only have my finger on the touchpad, I'm not pressing any additional buttons. Anyone experienced this issue before and know how to turn it off?

    In order to resize browser font you normally press CTRL + Mouse Wheel.

    Sounds like your CTRL button is being pressed down. To be sure, type something, select it, and press X - if it dissapears, you've done a CTRL+X (Cut) Action.

    No I'm definitely not pressing ctrl when it happens. Looks like it some "helpful" feature built it to this specific touchpad.
