Menus

When I hover over some menus, I can’t see the bottom items. Simply scroll your page with the mouse wheel while you hover on a menu. If you don’t have a scroll wheel, use the scroll bar to move the page up to where the menu starts and hover again. Keying F11 to expand the page may help to reveal the menu.
