Tabs and options buttons HUGE! HALP!

This is affecting my computer using ANY version of firefox all the way down to v2.1 (the earliest release I've tested.). The tabs and buttons are gigantic and I can't figure out why. This is with the default theme, default add-ons, and default extentions. I've uninstalled firefox, removed all mozilla/mozilla.org/mozzilla-addons registery keys and rebooted and reinstalled. No matter how many times I do this no matter what version of firefox I install it does this. This is the only program affected so I don't believe it is an issue with my PC. IE7/Opera/Chrome/Safari are all working wonderfully but I prefer Firefox for my default browser. Yes, I have a custom shell for my Windows XP but I have disabled it and replaced the original shell and it's still having the issue. Can anyone help me out?

Screenshots from FF4B1 (but remember, it's affecting any installed version). http://i28.tinypic.com/t7lw13.png http://i28.tinypic.com/4l1xqe.png http://i31.tinypic.com/2ceiw48.png

Every time Firefox opened

Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode? http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."

If not, see this: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/troubleshooting+extensions+and+theme...

--- BTW, running different versions of Firefox without using separate Profiles for each is just asking for problems like that. https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Profiles
