Bug Description
I am using the World Clock Applet (version 2.22.1.2) on a dual head monitor under Ubuntu Hardy Beta.
When I click on the time to expand the calendar and weather information the entire window that displays the weather and calendar is sized correctly. However, when I place my mouse over any of my set timezones, the "Set" button becomes visible. This in turn, increases the width of the entire window (the one that displays the weather and calendar).
The width of that window only increases a few pixels, but when it increases, it expands into the second monitor.
I have attached two screenshots. In the first image, you can see the window how it should be. In the second image, you can clearly see the world clock applet window passes the right most side of the docked panel above it (and onto the next monitor).

This is not limited to Dual Head. A similar problem happens to me on my laptop with no other monitors plugged in or configured. I'm using the recent Ubuntu 8.04 Release Candidate (fresh install). I have desktop effects disabled, using an Intel 855 graphics card with the default Intel driver. A screenshot is attached. (Note: I cropped the left half of the screen to save space, but the entire right-hand part of the screen is visible.) Please let me know if there is any other information you need to fix this.
