1. Right-click on the background to get the display properties
Go to 'Settings' (I think) and increase the display resolution.

2. What have you done to try to get it back normal?
Have you tried to change the screen resolution at all?

3. right click on your desktop -> properties --> appearance
and then depending on your OS you'll have some other options. It might be under "scheme" or might even have a direct "font and icon size" button or something.

It could also be worth checking to see if the display got changed - you might have gone from 1000x680 to 800 x 600 or something.
