How can I make the TW window fit on my screen? I have to scroll left and right to read everything in the posts. I have changed font size from smallest to largest, and back, doesn't help.

Can you update to the latest? I think this is something that is going on with certain VBulletin hacks and older IE software. Also I remember somethikng being said about screen size before with this issue. What is your screen size?

13 inches. But this is the only place I have a problem.

What is your screen resolution?

If you go into the Control Panel, then to Display, then in the Dialog that appears, click "Settings". There, you should see the resolution. At 13 inches, I'll guess it will probably be 640x480 or 800x600 :huh:

See the screenshot for an example:

...and you will have to scroll the screen left and right if you have either of those two resolutions.

Guess then I will have to scroll. Tried to adjust the rez. nite before last and my screen went to jagged slashes top to bottom, L. to R., tried rebooting nothing worked. Took it to my favorite computer geek (no offense intended) the next day and wouldn't you know it, right as rain. So the ancient sheepherder has a sticky note at the edge of the screen DO NOT MESS WITH THE RESOLUTION! I guess when I get enuff green stamps saved up I'll get a bigger monitor.

I've got 800x600, but minimal scrolling. Mozilla browser.
