Help with webpage size

Today, at about noon, when I opened my homepage of http://freerepublic.com/focus/news/browse?ao=1 , I noticed that the website was NOT fitting my browser window (IE 6.026). The page is larger, horizontally, than my laptop window. I have never had this problem before. Nor do I have this problem with other FR windows, ie. BROWSE, REVIEW, or threads that I open to read. I have not changed any formatting or font size.

I lose my right sidebar when I want to read the thread titles and intro, and when I scroll to the right to see my sidebar, lose about have the thread titles and intro.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can do to correct this situation? Thanks.

I think there should be a large thread with frequently asked questions like yours and a few I have....that can be found with a DESK HELP link from a main page.

Interesting....that THIS side of FR:

http://freerepublic.com/focus/ chat/browse fits fine.

It is JUST the:
http://freerepublic.com/focus/ news/browse?ao=1 side that I seem to have a problem with.

Perhaps John will see this thread and help?

We also need a 'road map'. I didn't even know that THIS side of the forum existed. And I have been posting/lurking for about 3 years. Oh my, huh?

That's strange. I clicked on this link and I'm not logged in....http://freerepublic.com/focus/ news/browse?ao=1

Yet I am logged in here...what is that other side? Is it different articles?? I knew there was a General, News, Religion and Activist...are they both the same??

I don't get it either. IS that where everybody is? Am I on the Bizzaro side??? Figures!

I went there, too and am also not logged in there. I tried to log in and it said I had old cookies. There were links to clear the cookies, but on "Step 3" the old computer here bogged down and returned with an expired page. Very strange indeed.

When I log in on the other 'side' with your link....and then come back to this thread...I had to log on again. I went back and forth and had to log on each time....
