Do you only notice this only when you view a topic? Or does this occur at other areas of your forum too?

It is not for us to go searching for info when you ask for help. However disable the e-floating bar and check it then  :D

Do you require any further support?
Seeing that you're using a custom theme. You should post at the theme's support topic,

@bluesinjid; Did you already check the Meta rules?
Because that is where youre problem is.

dzinerfusion

What do you mean by meta rules and, I'm pretty sure my ad mod is installed properly?

BleuBand

Go to "index.template.php" and check "from rule 68;"
You see there some Meta rules between de <head> and </head>
Now put 1 extra under it ; richgt under <head> <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE8" />

If you do this right then youre "messed up paper" right next to the URL on top must be gone  ;)

Could you eleborate what it does, cause I dont use IE8 or IE7

Arantor

The tag should read IE=EmulateIE7, I believe, nt EmulateIE8.

IE8 introduced a bunch of new things into it, which broke a number of things across the web. As a result Microsoft introduced Compatibility View to help, and what this does is tells IE8 to use Compatibility View to make it work.

dzinerfusion

Alright thanks a lot, hopefully its Microsoft fix it soon or if everyone switches to another browser :)
