Default Mobile Format on a PC?

Unless the format of the Forum has been changed it looks like the Forum thinks my PC is a smart phone. The odd formatting was showing up only when viewing some threads but has now started on pretty much the entire forum. What's going on?

Please post a screen capture or please provide further details. If the formatting is indeed the mobile skin, there's always a link at the bottom that allows full theme viewing. If it's not there, then we need more of a description besides "odd formatting" because it might be something else.

Yes, there's a script that is used by the forum to check if the device is a mobile device or not. It's also remembered based on cookies. It is not normal or common to see different themes for different threads. Sounds like you have an isolated issue that may not be the mobile theme.
