I've recently installed Firefox and have found it to be an improvememnt to IE, however, can someone please explain why, when using Firefox, IW homepage looks like this:

and in IE it looks like this:

cos the image is made up of several pieces and there's probably some option in firefox to wrap around to the window size, whereas IE keeps all the bits together

IE and FF interpret tables in different ways. FF is closer to standards, but IE lets you get away with things like putting 750 pixels of images in a 739 wide table.

Is there a way to change this? I've looked in settings but can't seem to find anything that could help.

Yeah, Ziroc has to change one instance of 739 into 750, and it'll render fine on FF. Nothing to be done clientside though, its a mistake on the page itself.
