Description

Using IE 5.50 (Win95), every page I've seen at this site (even before registering) is super-wide:
about 150% my full-screen browser width. Looks like culprit might be the "Powered by" footer; not
sure. FYI, don't have the problem in Netscape 6.2 or 4.79 on same system.

Version: unspecified
Severity: normal

It happens with IE6.0 / win2k sp5 as well.

The yellow bordered box at the bottom is align on the right
side of the screen.

I think it's shifted on the right using the main div instead
of the left side of the window. Maybe a </div> is missing
or its just yet another bug with IE :o)

Tip: use mozilla firefox, IE is really outdated

Hmm. The problem seems to be a combination of #footer { float: left; } in http://bugzilla.wikipedia.org/css/global.
css and #footer { margin-left: 13.6em; } in http://en.wikipedia.org/style/monobook/IE60Fixes.css. Will have a closer
look into it sometime.
