Internet Explorer 6 Size Distotion Bug

Ok, My Internet Explorer 6 SP2 browser has been causing images, text, etc. to be scaled about 20% larger then they actually are for some time now. It's a very fustrating bug I have tried to fix for some time now with no luck. Googling on the subject seems to mention an image distortion bug in IE6 SP1 that is suppossed to be fixed in IE SP2. I have tried enabling and disabling the automatically resize image setting with no luck. If anyone has a solution to this bug please let me know. Below is a screenshot of my problem.

Update: I have figured out the problem on my own. I was looking around my display adapter settings and noticed that my DPI setting was 120 DPI not 90 DPI, having changed it I now get IE behaving properly. Personally I think this is a bug in IE, especially seeing Firefox seem to handle the higher DPI setting properly. If this helped anyone else drop me a comment below.
