Text size can be overridden by the browser a number of ways:

1) Using an "Increase/Decrease Font Size" command, or switching from  
medium to large/small on IE.
2) Changing the default font size in browser preferences.
3) Configuring your browser to use a default stylesheet.

However, when font-size is set in absolute units (pixels, or even - 
shudder- points), as opposed to relative units (percentages or ems),  
IE has trouble resizing them.  As a result, it is usually suggested  
that you avoid absolute units for accessibility reasons.
