FireFox is displaying the link bar correctly, Internet Explorer gets
it wrong.
Consider this snippet from the Link Bar:
</A></nobr>&nbsp;&bull;&nbsp;<nobr><A HREF=The links in this link bar
are coded so that they cannot word wrap, although IE manages to do so
at the bullet (&bull;), which is the wrong behaviour.

Your choices are to
1) use a different style that allows word wrapping (the default style
is the only one I know of).

2) In FP2003, create your own style that allows wrapping - requires
editing the file at C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office
11\1033\botstyle\navbars.ini, copy one of the existing styles, and
edit the copy - give it a new name. Example, copy [Dots], rename the
copy to [Dots2], and
replace
H-Separator="&nbsp;&bull;&nbsp;"
with
H-Separator=" &bull;&nbsp;"
replace
name=Dots
with
name=Dots2

3) Use two or more custom link bars, so that they will wrap at the
"joins".

Thought #2 solution sounded pretty cool. Unfortunately didn't work. Any
reason why it didn't work.

Worked for me.
Did you remember to Replace the &nbsp; in the H-Separator line with a
space character?
Original
H-Separator="&nbsp;&bull;&nbsp;"
Change to
H-Separator=" &bull;&nbsp;"
NOT
H-Separator="&bull;&nbsp;"
