  I cannot login to edit: http://anokahennepin.wordpress.com

  When I try to login with Firefox I get a “connection reset” error, when use Netscape I get a “document contains no data” error. (I’m a Mac user, therefore no IE.) Yes, I am connected to the Internet and no, this site is not blocked by the firewall.

  You can see the site looks funny, the formatting is messed up. This happened over the weekend, as everything worked fine on Friday. I’m a new user and have been piloting wordpress for our school district. My hunch is there was some outside interference or hacking. Any assistance would be helpful.

  The blog looks just fine to me. Maybe you should close your browser, clear the cache, and look again? If that doesn’t help, I’d drop a Feedback to the staff.

  The blog looks fine to me with a firefox 2 browser. It also looks fine to raincoaster with IE 6.

  Thanks for checking, perhaps I was not clear enough. I checked on an PC machine in the building here and the same issue shows up on IE. The content is up and readable, but it looks like a Web site circa 1995, which is not how I left it on Friday. It’s one long page, i.e. blogroll and categories are at the bottom of the page, not along the right side.

  I have dropped Support a note.

  Any other thoughts are appreciated. Thanks again.

  Again, I have to say it doesn’t look messed up with me, and I’m using IE6. I see categories and the blogroll along the right-hand side.

  If your sidebar has dropped to the bottom, what could be happening is you could have included an image too wide for your main column. Check the pixels and see.

  I see what raincoaster sees. A normal blog with a right side sidebar. WordPress works very well with these browsers: Firefox 2, Opera 9 and IE 7.

  Hmm … perhaps it is me(!?) … or something with our network. Firefox’s error console is giving me a Source File error: “adminbar is not defined” for wordpress.

  I also got a connection reset trying to get to addons.mozilla.org

  Very peculiar.

  I switched from the building’s wired connection to the wireless connection and the problem has resolved. Thanks for the verification that everything was copacetic out there.
