From Bugzilla Helper:

BuildID:    2002052306

when I read news with Mozilla, the news headers do not display correctly.
Specifically, the with of columns dynamically changes sometimes causing fields
to the right of the "Date" header column to not be displayed at all. 

I use the display format where the newsgroups are listed on the left, the 
message headers at the top. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the news reader
2. Select a newsgroup
3. slowly scroll-down through the messages

Actual Results:  The message headers' widths keep changing.

Expected Results:  The message headers should have stayed the width I selected.

I think what you see is intended. To be sure please attach a screenshot and mark
clearly what you think is wrong.

here are the requested screenshots of the news headers changing. The thing to
notice is that columns are dropping off the screen in subsequent screen
shots...All I do is high-light the first article in the newsgroup and hit the
down arrow.

I am sorry, I completely overlooked your helpful attachments and comment. I
haven't seen this problem myself (using Linux). But since it is a long time
after you submitted this bug, let me ask you, if this is still a problem in 1.1
or later.
