increasing size of message boxes

When I open things like msconfig or Ad-aware or other similar
applications the box that opens does not let me
increase the size of the box. In other words I want to place my mouse
cursor on the corner of the box and drag it
to where it will open up the box, width and height, to a larger size.
Similarly, if I only want to increase the width
of the box I'd like to place my cursor on the right side of the box and
drag it to open it wider.

As an example in the msconfig box...I want to read the location of some
of the startup items but the most I can do
is place my cursor between command/location and drag the contents left
or right but whichever I do it's still very
awkward to read everything. You have to use the bottom scroll bar to
follow to the end of the box to see all that
is there.

I believe from using Windows 98se there is a registry key to go into to
increase the size of the boxes but I don't
remember how to do it.

I hope I've described properly what it is I want to do and I appreciate
any help someone would care to share.
