Default Messages are hidden by control bars

When I am viewing the different messages, the responses are displaying all messed up. Often I can't even read the response because there is a scroll bar in the way. On some responses, I can't even read one line. Does this happen to anyone else?

When I type mine in, I leave a return at the end and the whole message shows.

I wonder if it has something to do with your monitor settings ? Might be too large ?

I don't think I changed anything, and this morning everything I look at is fine. Same thing happened a couple of weeks ago and then suddenly stopped. The size of the letters on my last post have nothing to do with my monitor, I was playing with formatting under go advanced.

Do you or anyone else use your computer, perhaps to play online games or video games? This sometimes will change monitor settings to accommodate the game, and doesn't always switch it back to normal. Another thing that might cause it to change is an unstable operating system that may need to be reformatted.

I had that happen for a couple days and finally clicked the "compatability view" and it corrected itself. If you look at the url bar (where you type the address), you should find a button that looks like a piece of paper cut in half. Click that and it should work.

It happened to me and I was instructed to go into control panel of Windows 7 and lower the resolution and that helped. I had already clicked the compatability view. Mine has cleared up and I think lowering the resolution helped the most. I'm running Windows 7 and internet explorer 9.
