Perhaps time to upgrade? ;)

Heh well it is a 19" unit, but only 1280x which means my windows are quite low pixels if I'm multi-tasking. Of course, I should probably just stop reading the forums at work and save it for home viewing only :p

BTW how it is right now is great ;)

We are playing with the ad's server right now - install Powertoys and you can have uber windows switching? or an RSS Feeder when we fix the RSS feeds?

Especially when it's a porn site... :O_o1:

The inability/lack of permission to install such things at work is precisely why I cannot use firefox :P

I'm not sure if it's related or not, but I'm still having issues with the first paragraph of articles/reviews disappearing, and having to select the hidden text to read it.

This isn't such a problem except one review had a green underline-y link in the first paragraph which, when I selected the text, opened the pop-up, thus hiding the text I was trying to read.

This is with IE6 (at work, so no FF)

I have the same problem, but have gotten so used to highlighting it I'd forgotten :p For me it happens when the text is to the right of an advert or picture - when the page loads the text appears breifly but when the advert loads it seems to dissappear.

Thats in IE only yes?

That's the one.

David - I'm not sure, as I don't tend to read the reviews etc at home on FF...

Ooh, ooh - this one's doing it now:

Doing what sorry - Please, if you do want us to fix these be more helpful, describe the exact problem you are seeing and a screenshot

The disappearing first paragraph thing...

If you scroll down and back up again it reappears. I don't think it's moving off screen or anything, for some reason IE is covering it up with white space or some other rendering issue. It's probably an interaction issue between the first paragraph, a large image following that and the advert. I'll have a look into it but it won't be an easy one to fix I don't think.
