Crazy Font problem

Some of my fonts in only some of my apps is soo small I can't read it. I can
see it!! I just can't read it.

For instance , in the windows Services window , when you click on or
highlight a service it gives a description of the service to the left of the
service list , the script there is SOO small I can barely make it out. and
this just started a month or 2 ago , and because its not ALL apps and not all
fields in any certain apps its not noticeable until i start an app that has
the problem.

confused yet? well I am.

the other place it happened is in my Microsoft desktop Camera instructions
, the print was there but micro small!

what program could be causing this? the only one that i can think of is
Adobe Reader because I use open office , notepad AND Word pad and they all
work normally , but then again so does the reader....

ANY ideas??
