Default Problem with display

When my computer was starting up one morning a screen
popped up and by moving the mouse I accidentally hit one
of the buttons and didn't get to see what the screen was.
Ever since then everything on my computer has been HUGE...
when viewing pictures my pixels are huge and distorted.
When I am surfing or going to my web based emails I have
to scroll over to get the whole view of the page. I tried
changing the fat, the displays on my monitor and in my
preferences from the beginning and nothing I have done
seems to help. I would appreciate it if anyone has any
ideas. Thank you for your time.

Right-click a blank area of the desktop and choose Properties then Settings.
Move the screen area slider one position to the right (ie, select a larger
screen area). That will make the objects on the screen (text, icons,
windows) smaller.
