Shell integration problem
To be honest, I'm not 100% sure how this comes about. It seems to be when a program that is installed in Windows 7 which integrates features into the shell (Right-Click menu primarily), 7 doesn't seem to understand how to size it properly. The screenshot will explain this better than I have. Note that the red highlighted area should really not be there.
Examples of programs which integrate into the shell include WinRar, MagicISO - generally third-party apps. This was definitely not a problem in Windows Vista.
Do it the way Vista did it? I really don't know, but it's quite a severe problem. Just give the right click menu enough room for the icons where applicable.

Oh, I hadn't noticed it posted here. I guess it's good to know it's not just me with this problem. Hopefully they'll fix it up - it doesn't really bother me that much, but looking at it you just know it shouldn't be there.
Well, i'm not sure if its been posted here, or I saw it on a forum, but I do know its an on going problem, but i dont believe it was a problem on vista, but it is on windows 7, so who is to blame? Microsoft for creating a uneeded menu system?
I think it was present in the first Vista beta too. Not in the RTm though.
Why though? Isnt windows 7 based off of the new 6.1 codebase? It should be fixed by now...
Disable the WinRAR shell extension.
Riiiiight.
This problem has already been asked for. According to Mr Larry Osterman is due to problems with WinRar explorer extension. And his right.

Been posted a lot of times before,but its mostly a problem with those 3rd party programs, and in your case, magic ISO....
