Can anyone tell me why, when I open internet explorer, the web page content
does not fill the window. It has a gap either side of the page content and
is really bugging me! Can anyone tell me how to fix this problem?

It is the way the web page is designed, you cannot do anything about it.

Only way "you" can fix it, is to make the browser window narrower.

The only problem with that theory is that it works fine on my other computer.
I recently had XP reinstalled following a major crash, but prior to that all
pages filled the browser window. My home page is Wanadoo and it happens on
that as well as yahoo, next and pretty much every other web site I enter
other than microsoft!

In that case you likely have set a different screen resolution than you
had previously. (Control Panel, Display properties, Settings)

That's caused by the way the page is designed. If it looked different
before, I couldn't say why unless the programmer made a change in the code.

If your computer screen setting is larger then it will center the
webpage on the screen.
There is no solution for this other than to change your screen setting
to 800x600.
Some webpages will dynamically enlarge to the width of your screen some
don't, this one doesn't. Personally I would live with it the way it is
so you are not scrolling side to side with webpages that are designed
for screen widths larger than 800. 1024 width is slowly becoming the
norm.
