How can you disable zooming in Internet Explorer and Firefox?

How can you disable zooming in Internet Explorer and Firefox? The zooming features in both Internet Explorer 8 and Firefox really bother me. I use Ctrl + (TrackPad Click) to open new tabs and often my finger will graze the track pad which activates the zoom feature (Ctrl + mouse wheel basically). Then normally the tab, which was just opened, will be 1000% or 10%.

"Firefox

Enter about:config in the address bar. Now, look for zoom.maxPercent and zoom.minPercent and fix their values to 100.

Internet Explorer

For Internet Explorer, I think this is what you meant:

Go to menu Tools >> Internet Options >> Advanced and check that box."
