I run a double height taskbar and IE4 with the large toolbar buttons,
the Address bar and the Links bar. Your homepage mentioned below sucks
in that the bottom frame is too small and the fancy scrolling text is
unreadable. I don't see why the hell I should change my browser
settings just because you don't know how to design a page to
accommodate different people's settings. At 640x480 it's even worse.

So I thought I would try Opera. That was interesting. Bottom frame is
just a black band, no text. No scrolling text anywhere.

You should learn to respect your customers more. It is their choice of
config for how to set up their systems. Don't force the choice for
them.
