This is just poor page design. The page specifies a DIV of height 30px for the
text which won't fit the text, if you have a larger font.

<div style="width:473px; height:30px; " >
<!-- Begin HTML Area DERIVED_ER_PAGE_INSTRUCTIONS -->
If you have previously registered, sign in below.</P>If you have not previously
registered, click on one of the links above.
<!-- End HTML Area -->
</div>

The whole page specifies pixel sizes so is fundamentally broken.
Could put this under evangelism if that's still alive.
