I think I see no difference, maybe you are using a non default font?

Cheng, can you provide details of any theme / font changes you have made on your system from the default if you have made any?

I am using the official Windows XP Zune theme from Microsoft. No font changes are made. However, I tried switching back to the default Windows XP theme and still see the same issue. Will provide a screenshot soon.

From left to right:
1. Original Option window when first opened
2. Switch to Security tab (Notice the window height increases)
3. Switch back to General tab. Size remains the same (does not shrink back)
