Firefox - Font sizes

Is anyone else having an issue with font sizes with this site when using Firefox 3?

The attached screenshot shows the problem (Not a huge problem I should add), i.e. the font size is enlarged in various parts of the page.
I never get this issue with IE7 and it doesn't always happen with Firefox...

Any ideas?

I have not used the zoom function in FF, it just seems to happen at random when selecting different menus, e.g. 'Subscribed Threads', 'More New Topics' etc.

KIA,

I've been getting this too - but it's very intermittent, and I've never been able to reproduce it consistently enough to give you a report. And I think I used to get it with Firefox 2 as well.

Will keep an eye out for it. My main browser is FF3, so am a bit surprised that I've not spotted this.

I was getting it a lot when you did the upgrade (as I mentioned) but it seems to do it a lot less now.

Next time it happens - scroll all the way down and below the banner, you'll see an IP address ( 218.188.194.196 for example ). Let me know the IP, could be that one of the servers is picking up a wrong file.

Actually, I'll second that - I was seeing it, but it seems to have largely gone away now. FF3, naturally

It's happened to me too. Didn't notice it happening in the older version of Firefox.
