I've found finally where the problem comes from.
Actually, it seems that IE 6.0 cannot display correctly
in 120 dpi resolution. I have a 1400x1050 resolution
laptop, and the normal 96 dpi settings make the letters
too small. So I've set the resolution to 120 dpi. The
majority of the applications can handle it well, but the
Explorer has problems with it. It automatically resizes
both text and images, and it provides a quite ugly
display.

It's a bit embarassing to have this bug in IE, IMHO.
