Not sure why this happens, but it has happened from time to time. Everything in my FF browser is centered. All type, art, forms, etc. Even when I click in a form field, the cursor comes up in the center of the form field. IE is fine, but FF, which I generally like alot, is driving me crazy like this.

This has happened before but somehow I fixed it. This time it is not going away. Closing and opening the browser does nothing. Rebooting my computer does nothing.

Any ideas??
