    This is a very minor bug.

    The last post in every thread that has more than 1 entry has scroll bars (vertical and horizontal) even though they aren't needed.

    Also, sometimes a quoted section will cover up part of the first line of text following the quote, but scrolling up and down will get it to move so you can read everything.

    Not sure if these are only for IE7.

    more info: both of these are related. the vertical scroll bar will scroll the regular text but the quoted text remains fixed relative to the window.

    I don't see the problem, everything looks normal on my Mac. Maybe George will pipe in, but he is also on a Mac.

    It doesn't happen on Win 7 IE 8 if you turn off compatibility view. (Under Tools menu)

    NB It's not a bug but a different interpretation of the HTML.

    One reason to use IE 8: I can right click on tables and import them into Excel.
