Please help

There is a very large space between each item in IE 9 right click menu. A screenshot is attached. Is there any way to make it normal?

Does it happen with IE9 context menu only or in Windows Explorer, Desktop and other programs as well?

If only IE9, then it might be an add-on problem. Try to open IE in no add-on mode using "All Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> Internet Explorer (No Add-ons)". If it shows the context menu normal, then its 100% add-on problem. In this case you can try to disable all add-ons one by one to find the culprit.

There is no problem with explorer or other programs context menu.

I tried Internet Explorer (No Add-ons), but still right click menu is large!

I rarely use IE. Today somehow opened IE and found this messy context menu

Just a thought, apply the default areo theme and see if the problem still persists.

@theapu
From your screenshot, I'm sure you are using a 3rd party theme and most probably its the cause of your problem. Try to apply default Aero theme and it should fix it.

Thank You both. The theme was the culprit. It is OK now.
