Author Website doesn't diplay properly

I created a website in Pub 2002 (www.vkvboers.com). And it displays properly
on 99% of the computers I've viewed it on, but on one friend's machine, the
photos overlap the text. This happens on their machine on all the websites
I've created. I've tested them on FF, IE 6, IE7 and Netscape - only hers is
screwed up. She's using IE 6 - I tried w/diff screen settings too - same
result, pix overlapping text. Can someone suggest what other settings I might
check on her machine to see if I can resolve this. Also, other websites she
views (One's I didn't create in Pub) are fine.

Any suggestions welcome.
Thanks,
Dawn

Dawn,

I 'can' get the same result - if I use zoom in Mozilla. In essence, this
tries to display something like an 800x600 pix page in a 480x320 browser
but instead of creating scroll bars, it simply makes everything larger.

I experienced similar problems when I had my Windows font settings greater
than the default.

Suggest to your friend to check the font size settings at:

Start
Settings
Control Panel
Display
Settings tab
Advanced button
General tab
DPI settings
setting on Normal (may cure the display problem she
sees with your website)
