So over the weekend I tried to change some settings. I couldn’t. Or rather, I could, but only if I clicked the tiny quarter-screen frame that seemed to have been allocated for all the settings pages, and scrolled up and down to see the full page.
I’m not the only person with this problem. I’ve since tested with several other people’s machines and they all have the problem too.
I reported it to the Google Reader forum and the engineer claimed to know nothing about it. And still nothing has been done about it.
I will bet a large amount of Lindens that, in implementing the Offline feature, someone, somewhere has broken the Settings frameset. But the really weird thing is that I cannot find anyone else reporting the problem.
Am I really totally alone?

Sorry about this, we inadvertedly broke the settings page sizing code in Internet Explorer 6. A fix for this should be live by tomorrow, and in the meantime you can go to the settings page directly by visiting this URL: http://www.google.com/reader/settings

Cool. Does that mean I was the only one then?
There were a few other reports
The fix is live now.

And it is live!
Let’s hear it for Google Support – good response, and took the time to post here.
