......though sometimes I find it disappears and I just go back to the homepage and/or refresh and it comes back.
Also I believe if you use Adblock Plus in Firefox you need to disable it on the SFF page.

Can't say ABP has ever caused me issues on this site.

Likewise, so I don't think it's that.

Really? I feel I must stress switching to a more recent browser, simply because you're running a massive security risk with something that outdated (Plus it's Internet Explorer). I strongly recommend you try something like Chrome or Firefox.

Like most corporations it's all about the money !!

We have the worlds slowest systems but we have to grin & bear it unfortunately. We only made 250+ million profit last year so we can't afford these trivial things ....

Windows 2000 won't run anything above IE6 without OS upgrade and such a transition could be time consuming meaning costly, they're probably putting it off as long as possible.
