internet explorer - CSS font size not being respected -


I have a font size set in the CSS class, which is set to size 10px, it is fine on my PC and other Dev's PC Works, but when clients use the site, they get a larger text size. We've checked our browser settings and the text size is set to Medium like our PC. This is an internal web app and all users (and our god) use Internet Explorer 8.

Can the web application overwrite our CSS settings? Is there any other browser or OS settings that can interfere?

Font size and family are:

  font-family: MS Sans Serif, Vernana; Font size: 10px! Important;  

Is "client intranet settings" or "compatibility view" enabled in IE? ? They will make IE8 an excuse to be IE 7, which may account for differences in rendering.
