I just bought a new dell laptop and retardedly got vista instead of 7. Anyways, while reading cracked.com and using my touchpad I somehow zoomed way in and can't fix it. I'm in Firefox, but there aren't any view options to correct it. I tried googling the problem, but couldn't find anything helpful. Can somebody save me?

Ctrl +/- z zooms in and out.  Ctrl 0 resets to default size.

Ignore that "z".  That's a typo.

also, ctrl+mouse scrollwheel. I'd guess you accidentally hit the 'scroll bar' (the little vertical line on the right hand side of your touch pad) and zoomed with that, since it acts as a scroll wheel.

If you want to disable that, by the way, you can do it by removing the synaptics touch stuff from the startup.

You may also have done the multi-touch pinch or spread.  If you put two fingers on the touchpad and move them away from one another, you'll zoom in, and if you move them together, you'll zoom out.
