Earthlink's Analytic (Website support) inadequate display in Linux
Earthlink is eliminating the Urchin tool in the web-site management section of their Earthlink -- Control Center web-site and replacing it with Analytics tool.
This tool provides a good display in Windows 7 system but is totally inadequate
in the Linux system. One has trouble reading the menus; both the character
size and colors are not appropriate and there appears to be no way to alter them.
Have you contacted Earthlink's support to see what suggestions they have? If the tools appear on a web page, I have a hard time understanding why they would appear different in Linux.

Earthlink Support suggested that I contact you
Really?
Can I see a screenshot of the email? Black out whatever you want.
Also: Most Linux distributions will allow you to install the Microsoft "webcore" fonts, which help older websites to look right. Try that first. Your report that the colors are wrong concerns me though. For that, try getting a user-agent-switcher for your browser and setting your user agent to various IE versions.

The Analytics tool occupies the entire screen; I have no access to the Firefox control menus;
Pressing F11 and/or F10 doesn't fix that? The Analytics tool is a website that you're viewing in Firefox, is it not?
The screenshot of the control panel in Ubuntu looks fine to me. But do try setting your user agent to Internet Explorer and seeing what happens. There are Firefox extensions that let you do that,.
