Inexplicable oversized UI components

Hi,
I own two computers. Both running Windows 2000. On one of those, some
application windows appear bloated. I am testing an email client being
developed here. The client window takes up half the screen area on one
computer, and 2 screenfuls on the other. No scrollbars, nothing I just can
not see some parts of that window because it is larger than my screen.
Resizing doesn't help either. And this is happening right after
installation. Right when I launch the application for the first time. So
this is certainly not the case that "I had myself resized the window on
last use, and the app remembered it".
Because of this blown up window size, some of the buttons become
invisible, and I can not click on them. Can anybody explain why the app is
working fine on one computer while not on the other?
This is happening in the case of only that one application, and none else.
but I do not think the application is faulty, because it shows the window
fine on my other computer. Both computers are using the same display
resolution.
Any idea why this may be happening?

thanks,
