Can anyone help?This is a Firefox bug, not a PC bug. The linked page displays differently in each of three different Gecko-based browsers that I tested. In Camino, it displays perfectly. In Firefox, it displays as posted above. In Sea Monkey, the top banner displays mid-window. It seems that the Mozilla Group has work to do.

Also, I noticed that sometimes Firefoz won't download things....but things will download perfect on IE. Like when I try to save a file besides a picture it just stays there or sometimes a green bar moves through it, and if I click retry a few times it might work. Is this a Firefox bug or should I re-install windows XP? Also I have the latest version of Firefox.

We have resolved that Firefox has some bugs. Firefox is also opensource. You may run Firefox, bugs and all. You may switch to a less buggy browser like Safari or Camino. You may download the source code and fix the bugs.
