I am facing a peculiar problem nowadays. Quite surprisingly, some of the characters of the last words in every line in my e-mail messages (Hotmail) get hidden in the right side of the screen and I am unable to read the same. I have to resort to guess work which works for most of the times but it is somewhat annoying. When I am unable to make a sense of the same or there are small independent words, I have to follow a different course so as to read the hidden matter. I press the reply button and the whole text becomes visible but this process is troublesome and consumes a great deal of time. Reducing the size of the text (View>Text Size>Smallest) does not help.

What may be the possible cause of this problem and how can I get rid of the same?

Thanks in anticipation.
