User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4

On the left there is a frame with general info and some sponsored links. The
sponsored link is in this case covering the frame next to it where all the
general info is displayed. Making the info in that frame hard to read.

It works fine under Microsoft IE.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. surf to the page
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
The left frame add went over the central frame.

Expected Results:  
Keep the left frame add inside the left frame.

Was able to reproduce. I.E displayed page with the text inside the left frame as
did Opera browser.

I minimised the difference to this. This wraps in IE6 and Opera8.5 (strangely
enough), but doesn't wrap in Mozilla, which seems to me the correct behavior.

Yeah, that shouldn't be wrapping.  Doesn't wrap in khtml either.  Sounds like a bug in Opera and IE.
