I don't know if anyone else is experiencing this, but thought I would mention it. After a bit if a hiatus, ironically to focus my time on a perl project for work, I noticed some odd PM behaviors upon my return. I frequently encounter pages that fail to wrap to the width of my browser window. This seems to happen at random, in any section. It's very annoying because it spreads the page out to about 50% wider than my browser window. So I need to scroll right several inches to see the CB. It does this using IE5/6 or NS4 on Win2k and OSX.

Has anyone else been experiencing this? Am I correct that it began after some fairly recent changes (~3 weeks or so). Any ideas, suggestions? Can it be fixed?
