Try hitting your refresh button... If you see this that is.

Why does the name "Gummy" spring to mind?

Think you could take a screenshot so I can get a better idea of the problem?

Ah so the text is coming up black, and not grey/blue or whatever it should be.

I wonder if IE4 only recognizes the 250 colour web palette. That might be why it displays like that, even if you set it to use windows colours.

Well, to be honest with you I don't know what the problem is with IE4. Make sure you have your display settings set to at least High Color (16-bit). My guess is that Windows can't show that color, so it's showing the closest match, black (which is very odd).
