Ok, I've tried this THREE TIMES now, and I am sure it doesn't work, GOOGLE TOOLBAR
I've had 3 BSOD's trying to install it and I'm not ready to try again. Vista says it's a device driver problem, but "can't tell me" which one................ok
I tried looking for the log, but it was gone/renamed; my system specs are below

I'll just stick w/Yahoo toolbar for now

Here is one that DOES WORK!!

Flock (browser) 0.5.12

It resizes very well, I can increase text size without losing content to the right side; I like this one......

I saw someone had a version of Opera listed that did work, but it was 9.something beta; I just installed Opera 8.52 and it works great as well. The resizing of pages works, but it also tries to resize images, which tends to make things look choppy

Yeah, it installed fine for me. I uninstalled it to try and get the video drivers working, but that didn't help anything towards that end.
