I've had one program adamantly stick with a wiiiiiide window: The KDE3 
applet for ripping CDs. It always came up with a window much wider than 
my laptop's 1280 screen width, and refused to let me resize it. The 
window was NOT maximized. That was running under KDE3. I haven't used it 
since moving from KDE3, though.
