Well, is it still happening? Usually quitting WormNet and reconnecting fixes these frontend issues. A proper fix will come when the frontend is completely rewritten.

Hm, I can imagine dual monitors being the problem here, yes. Are you using them in clone or extended desktop mode? Try both. Also, make sure your setup supports the 640×480 resolution at 8 bits (256 colours) in the first place.

Another thing to be careful about is keeping the font size setting in Windows at the default value (96 DPI). More info on that here:

1. Extended fail
2. Cloned fail
3. 96DPI in windows7 was set to 100%

Hm. You can also disable the DPI scaling for the worms executable only by using the corresponding compatibility option in Windows Vista or later.
