Thanks for the reply, Hugmonster. No, I didn't change my screen resolution and I do log on 'correctly', through the 'cgi' address. It's just that for some reason over the last three or four days, the black and yellow 'Prof Pilot RN' logos in the usually very small columns that contain the thumbs up/down, smileys etc icons and the other one containing that icon to tell you whether there have been any posts to the thread since you last logged on have blossomed to such a size that they fill my screen, forcing me to scroll over to the right to look in to (a very skinny column) for the thread title.. .. .I've made no changes to my machine - the problem for me seems to have started with the introduction of the 'New Topic' icon. It doesn't always happen - just about 90% of the time.. .. .Any ideas anyone?
