What do you think of setting a font's size via px? I don't think it has much effect in Firefox but in IE6 it keeps the user from being able to mess up the design by changing the font size. I suppose the drawback is the user can't change the font size in IE6 in case it's too small for them to read. I guess it comes down to weighing these two factors against each other considering my site's particular design?

Does anyone know how IE7 handles fixed fonts?

If your site layout breaks by changing the font size, that probably indicates a poor design.
