Hello
When java displays a dialog in the windows L&F, the font appears very small
screenshot: http://ipn2.epfl.ch/lns/tmp/dialog.gif

This is independent of the application used and a java-only problem (the 
screenshot comes from a sun swing example code).

I _guess_ this started when one of my webstart apps updated the JRE to 
1.6  (actual version is now
java version "1.6.0_01"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_01-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.6.0_01-b06, mixed mode, sharing)

How can I put the font size back to normal at the system level?

Thanks for your answers.
Philipp
