Are you sure you haven't got the font size turned up in Opera? I know that I've had to turn it up/down in both IE and firefox before having accidentally put it up for one reason or another. I can't remember how it's done in Opera (and being at work I can't check) but it's ctrl + or ctrl - in firefox
