Turn off Clear Type in IE 7

Alright well, i did search, and i did follow the instructions for turning off Clear Type in IE7, but it doesn't seem to be having any effect. I need to turn it off because it's inflicting on my IEView skins that use certain fonts that aren't displayed properly with cleartype.

So can someone tell me how to do it so it will actually be effective?

1) Open up IE7.

2) From the Tools menu in IE7 select Internet Options (You can also do this via the control panel =] ).

3) Select the Advanced tab and scroll down to Multimedia.

4) Uncheck the box labeled "Always use Clear Type for HTML".

5) Click Apply and then OK

7) Restart IE7

Hope this helps, it worked for me!

That's exactly what i did. didn't work.

Ok another way:

1) right click on desktop

2) scroll to "properties"

3) click "Apperance"

4) click "Effects"

5) change "ClearType" to standard in the drop down box

6) Click ok, Apply then Ok again

Hope this helps
