Have you tried with different browsers/renderers?  The two biggies
would be (mozilla/firefox/epiphany)/gecko and konquerer/khtml.  This
sounds like more of a rendering "bug" than a site problem.  I quote
"bug" because it's extremely likely that the spammers are sending
something that's nonstandard html :)  It could be either, though.  I
don't use dakotacom so can't check myself.
