maybe you did a zoom (CTRL + or CTRL -), CTRL-0 resets the zoom.
If that doesn't work, does it look the same in IE?

also, put a link, but add some spaces to avoid being backtracked, like: www [dot] hotmail +dot+ com

in Firefox, press CTRL-0 (that's the Control key and the zero key), or go to View > font size > reset

or just post a link to any page that looks odd in your browser

Nope. It looks normal in IE. See? Firefox isn't better.

Is "zoom text only" enabled?

View > Zoom > Zoom text only


and it IS better.

That web site looks that way due to IE only web coding. If the web designer had used the w3c web coding it would not look that way. Send an email to the web master and nicely tell them it's broken they might not know. The other thing the web master might have set the width to an exact number that can mess things up. yes that's bad form on the web master part.

Throwing the site at http://validator.w3.org gives "Failed validation, 171 Errors".

Strangely, it displays OK at the moment, for me, using:
Firefox 3.0.1
Seamonkey 1.1.9
Konqueror 3.5.9

However, it now seems to be devoid of adverts.

PS. And Opera 9.27

It's the webpage's problem, they made it dependent on font size, that's a typical novice mistake in web development, hope they didn't pay the guy who made the html more than what I win...
