Yes, it is definitely annoying, and it has been happening more in the last few months, for some reason. It is not just with IE. I read using Firefox which has the same problem. That said, every time I want to read the long-line postings I hit Ctrl+U to bring up "Page Source" view, where the text of the post is formatted properly for reading (scroll down a bit). So this is a workaround for existing annoyances. BTW, I don't think it is a 99.999999% share for IE; hasn't been for a long time. Don't know about actual users/posters to Tango-L, but out there on the intertubes (http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q=ted+stevens+intertubes) the current browser shares are: IExplorer: 57 % (total of 3 versions) Firefox: 36% and others below 2% each (Safari, Opera, Mozilla). See this: http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp and one may suppose the Tango-L distribution may not be much different.
