Post installation

I have made a Drupal site using Drupal 4.7.3 and the Sunflower theme. It looks great in Firefox, but there is a minor formatting issue with Internet Explorer.

In IE, when a line of text reaches the right-hand side of the page, it vanishes before it wraps onto the next line, so some of the text is lost. Even when the browser window is stretched out to the right, this irritating 'vanishing area' still exists.

To see what I mean, screenshots of the right-hand edge of a line of text just before it wraps can be found below, in both browsers:

Hello!

I installed il18n, everything works fine so far, but I have Problems with the Contact Form.
The Test of the form is translated (at least so far as I entered the translation)
But the Test in "Additional information:" is not translated ... How could I have a fully translated contact form? Is it possible to create a single form for each language?

I currently used mostly story nodes for news type articles that allow discussion and use the 'recent comments' block to show the latest 10, this all works fine.

I know want to develop a forum in the background, it's quite messy at the moment but want to allow a group to start testing etc. The current problem is when they post forum topics they are appearing in the recent comments block, and I want to exclude them.

I've looked into comment.module and think this can maybe achieved here

I recently deleted a posting on the front page of a social networking site I'm creating. Since then I cannot view the index.php page (I think this is the home page as well). It says page isn't available. I can access all the other pages if I type in the entire url. I am sure there is a quick resolution but I do not know enough to resolve this as the person who created the site had to abandon. I would like this resolved as soon as poosible and willing to pay for assistance.

my reply to adress is "apache" how do i change that to the site's email address

also

i would like to put more text in the message. like "you may change your password when you login"

Hi,

I am currently setting up a site that will mainly consist of a forum, a file repository and a bunch of community tools.

I need the site to be only accessible to authenticated users, but i also need some pages to be accessible to the public ( site presentation pages, registration instructions etc..)

I would like to know what you think is the best way to setup access control, i tried to disable the access content option but then the whole site becomes unavailable.
