Changed problem description.

The Resize Glyph was deprecated years ago. No program should still have it.

"Resizable windows no longer must show the resize glyph in the lower-right corner, because:
All sides and edges of a window are resizable, not just the lower-right corner.
The glyph requires a status bar to display, yet many resizable windows don't provide status bars.
The resizable window borders and resize pointers are more effective at communicating that a window is resizable than the resize glyph. "

You care about an options menu? Most spend their time actually speaking to people rather than fiddeling with trivial settings...

Great idea. The other one looked old and outdated. This one is just what we need.

Agree, and it should be resizable. Currently the window is too long and the "OK" and "Cancel" button is completely hidden by the Windows taskbar on my EeePC with small display screen.

The Messenger options dialog in Wave 4 /is/ bigger but still has the old look.
