Hello,

Yesterday I had both Firefox and Explorer (ugh!) browsers open at the same time, as I was editing my website on Yahoo Small Business Solutions and Firefox would not save changes (hence, the opening of Explorer. After I finished with the website changes, I noticed that there were changes on my Firefox page. It does not fit my screen by about 1/4" on the sides and bottom, and the top portion is not full like it was--the desktop bleeds through in the empty space up there. Please help! Thanks, Qz
