Hmm at default font sizes the page looks fine here, day old CVS; Linux.
Are you overruling the page fonts in prefs? What font sizes are you using there?
Have you set a minimum fontsize, and if so: Which one?

Comment 2

Proportional, monospace set to 14,
minimum set to 14

(old eyeballs...)

Comment 3

[Andrew Schultz]

the minimum font size is what is causing problems.  the 3-column part in the
middle of the page uses really small fonts and contains a few very long words
(which cannot be wrapped), so the columns get too wide and then the whole
section is too wide.

the problem is not a Mozilla bug, nor is it specific to Mozilla (the same would
happen in most other browsers)
