When reading a post in the forums, I have to move the scrollbar over to view the entire message. I changed the text size in Internet Explorer, but that did not work. The same problem occurred in Mozilla Firefox. Anyone know a way to fix this?

It happened because someone posted code, an image, or some other piece of text that forced the browser to scroll to the right to fit the text it (it would not wrap, was too wide, etc).

There's no way for another reader of the forum to fix that - the original poster would have to make sure it fits in one page-width before posting. Further, a page width to you, at say, 1024 pixel resolution, is smaller than my 1600pixel resolution, so as you can see, one man's right-scroll is another man's skinny page.
