User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; fr; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008120122 Firefox/3.0.5

When accessing TOOLS-->Account parameters then a window open showing all the accounts that have been defined. That window is higher than the WSVGA screen of my Asus Netbook. as a consequence The name of the first account cannot be seen and the zone containing the name of the Process (Account Parameters) is out of the screen. This means that you cannot drag that window to move it to a different position of the screen nor can you click the X to get out of the Account Parameters process but instead you have to click the Cancel on the bottom of the screen. Within the Linux Mandriva environment a similar problem, but even more disturbing, exists; I will document too in a second bug report.
Regards

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Make sure you are working on a WSVGA screen of a Netbook.
2.Select TOOLS
3.Click on Account parameters
Actual Results:  
The window that cannot be move is displayed because the title bar is above the screen limits

Expected Results:  
Window should fit into the PC screen.

Make sure the window fits within the screen or if it is to big to fit in the screen provide a means to move the window up or down but the title bar should never be out of the screen.
