Same problem exists still. I verified that the smallest setting on a friends computer still has show the bold tags on this forum not like the second example I posted in #10. What would be causing this on my computer? Can someone set their view to smallest and tell me which of the 2 examples in my post#10 their forum appears. (Note when scanning threads, all appears normal UNTIL you open a thread, and then it appears differnet.)

Been mulling it over, and haven't been able ot come up with anything definitive.
Below the text size option for IE under the view options, there is something called 'encoding'.
I have mine set to "Western European (ISO)" at the moment.
Setting it to "Western European (Windows)" has some minor effect, but nothing truly outstanding as to be obvious at this point.

Have you installed any new fonts lately?
I'm currently using Windows default Times New Roman.
Changing fonts, even to one similar to TNR, can make things display oddly.


There is a setting to tell the browser to ignore webpage formatting, but at the moment can't recall where it's stuck in Windows.
