Ok, I understand what you mean.

The ability for IE to show or not the horizontal scrollbar goes with its need. On two shots you sent me, those are not needed as you have full screen thus the 1024 sort/of area is all visible. But, as soon as you are resizing the window a little bit smaller, thus approach that limit, it will start to show the horizontal bar. I do have the same reaction here. It is also similar to several other Web sites I am visiting.
