Re: IE <select> pop-up size determination?

Could it be different versions of the DLL that provides the commons
controls?  I forget the name of it, but I'd bet IE uses the same
drop-down list as every other native Windows app.  Maybe the different
machines have different versions?

Also, is everyone using the same font size?  Same "skin" (classic
Windows versus Windows XP Teletubby)?  Other OS-level display
settings?

Just some random thoughts--I have no idea if they're really related to
your question.
