Just verified this with the latest build too - the problem
persists. Exactly the same problem on every page.

Please contact me directly for the site address.
Tried a few more things but this server continues to dog me.
IE 5, Netscape 4.7 and Opera all work fine with the site
so I am guessing there is something we arent doing right.
