I run with my display set at large(120 DPI).  The effect is that windows uses more pixels in its fonts.  It appears that you size the about screen without taking this into account.  As a result, the enlarged text doesn't fit.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. set display properties advanced to 120 dpi
2. display about screen
3.
Actual Results:  
text does not fit.  note that this is in the beta - is the text larger?

Expected Results:  
text fits

I didn't mark this as trivial since you actually can't see the build information.  I'm not sure what the workaround is but the information isn't crucial.

Marc, I believe this works now, correct?

Just noticed this request.  I no longer run with XP or the machine in question.  I assume all is well but can't verify.

Looks good on Firefox 37.0.2 & 43.0.2 on Windows XP with 120DPI.
