Opera 11.51 on Win 7 not displaying websites properly

When I load a web page, it loads and displays properly for about 2 secs, then suddenly the text shrinks so small that I can't read it. It still says 100% in the browser, but I have to make it 160% to read comfortably.
Anyone know what's happening?

That sound like you have enabled fit to width.
CTRL+F12 for preferences > Web Pages > Deselect > Fit to width

Wow, thanks to Luxor. I've been searching around for several days looking for a solution to this problem and voila, now disabling Fit to Width took care of it. I'm so happy with Opera and it's speed after the buggy new FF. It's like a rocket comparatively.
