I have just installed Brave and most everything else looks OK.
Site comes up OK with other browsers like Firefox.
I have a Windows 10 Pro 64 bit system.

Can anyone help?
Thank You

@Gekova I’m able to visit both site and its loaded properly. Can you share your shields settings for this site? You can click Brave icon at URL bar.
Also, can you try clear your cache? In case that can help. 
Hi,
Thanks for your response.
Here are my shields settings
Why should anything here affect the basic downloaded display?
ALSO: Tried clearing everything, browsing history, downloads,
cache etc without luck. Same thing.
Awaiting your reply.
Thank You

@Gekova,
I believe you forgot to include your Shields settings in your last reply.
Additionally, when certain ads, trackers, cookies and other page elements or blocked, they can sometimes cause rendering issues with the site – we often refer to these as “web compatibility” issues.
We actually have a category for issues such as these here on Community – I’ve moved your post into the appropriate category on your behalf
Hi,
** “I’m able to visit
both site and its loaded properly”**
Yes, but have you tried the latest download?
My copy was downloaded over the last weekend. Why not give it a
try?
I had my shields settings at their DEFAULT values so that should
have fixed the problem but it didn’t.
Clearing cache etc had no effect either.
So why would other browsers load OK but not Brave? Could be the
latest download eh?
Thank You
Regards George
Hi,
I did send a screenshot of my shields settinngs which are at
DEFAULT so should not have caused the problem.
Here they are again …
** “we often refer to
these as “web compatibility” issues”**
Not sure what you mean by that.
This is the first time I've had any, even vaguely similar,
problem with previous browsers.
I would have thought a browser with ANY settings at all should be
able to display a web page correctly and not some alternate URL,
which is what Brave is doing.
Why don't you try downloading the latest version and see if it
has the problem?
I downloaded my copy over the weekend. Could just be the latest
version …
Thank You

@Gekova,
As stated before, Web compatibility refers to issues caused by a conflict between Brave’s settings (generally Shields) and some site. Recall from above:
The default Shield settings or designed for the most privacy while “breaking” the least amount of sites – this is not always the case however. The reason we asked is because it’s relevant – namely because on my end, the site loads without issue in Release build, tested on both macOS and Windows 10 OS:
While I believe that you have your Shields set to defaults as you described, it would still be useful to see what the Shields panel looks like on the site in question. Could you share a screen shot of that?
Hi,
“Could you share a screen shot of that?”
I did, didn’t you get my screenshot?
Here it is again …
Please confirm that you have received the settings screenshot.
Thank You

Have you downloaded recently?
I downloaded over the weekend. Why don't you try downloading now
& see?
Thank You

@Gekova,
I do see a screenshot of a Shields panel. Thank you for that.
Now, can you do the same thing, but on the site you’re having issues with – https://wattsupwiththat.com/2008/02/14/how-not-to-measure-temperature-part-51/?
This is what I see when I go there and open my Shields panel:
@Gekova,
Try the following Shields settings:
Hi,
With this shields setting, I see the correct display momentarily
until the wrong one appears.
