Here's an odd problem I've run into since upgrading to Win7

http://www.wowwiki.com/Icecrown_Citadel_loot

This is an example. If you click on the link and hold your mouse pointer over an item a little mini window pops up and gives you the stats.

That's great if you're looking at an item on the top part of the page as the pop up window stays towards the top but as you scroll down to view items lower on the page that pop up window goes so far down you can't even see it. This has only started since upgrading to Win7. What setting in either Windows or Firefox would need to be changed to allow that mini pop up window to stay centered and not run off of the page?

No thanks, couldn't stand it.

Anyway, if anyone knows if there's a setting I'm missing please let me know what it is, it's not a huge issue but just something silly that bugs me.

I was having major problems w/ firefox and windows 7...recently reinstalled it and it works like a charm...i think firefox worked out the bugs.

Hmmmmm, ok. Maybe I'll try reinstalling, I just updated to Win7 the other day though.

Never mind guys, figured it out. Changed the character encoding from Unicode to Western(Windows-1252) on that page and BAM! Worked like a charm.
