Smile Fix the Options for now

Basically, the format for most of the text in the Options box is taken from the Large System Font setting we each have made in the Appearance control panel. I'm assuming that most of us are using the original standard (Chicago) or one of the sexier new ones like Textile (my choice).

All but one of the choices available produces the overrun problem.

Set your Large System Font to Techno, and everything fits, because it's the skinniest of the choices available. It's also the least attractive from my point of view, but clearly the font of choice for the Mac LimeWire developers.

If the boxes were redone to accomodate the widest of the Large System Fonts (instead of the narrowest), then everything should be cool again.

Techno works for me!
LW 2.2.4 "Options Windows" are now useable!

Thank you Charles

Although, Techno is NOT my most favorite font.
