Sizing Issues...

I think you have to change the fonts used in your Windows. You can do this in the "Properties of Display" dialog in another subfolder (forth tab from left to right, sorry, don't know the English tab name) and there the "advanced" button. The fonts used are Tahoma (8 points) and Trebuchet MS (10 points). Maybe some of these fonts are missing in your Windows or you might have to many fonts to display all of them correctly (never heard of such a problem in XP, so).

I only have a couple of extra fonts installed at this point. Unfortunately, I tried replacing the Tahoma font already, but XP's stupid file protection garbage prevented me from doing it. I even tried changing all the fonts in the display properties to Times New Roman, but XP still would not let me delete the Tahoma font. Also, the problem persisted when I used the Times New Roman font.

I suggest upgrading to 98.

We had that happening in the windows update dialog boxes on some stupid dell laptops we got in.

When you tab over to the buttons and lists and stuff, it should scroll the window as nessesary.

Try going in as administrator, or use a boot disk if you really want to change that font.

I am always in as administrator...

How would a boot disk help? What would I do from it?

98 would be a downgrade... the only OS that would be an upgrade from XP would be 2000.

i have winrar. that looks pretty normal to me.

Umm... if that looks normal to you, your windows must be broke the same way mine is... It is certainly not normal. Most of the stuff that should be on that screen is pushed off of it.
