Bug Description

Bug Description: I use a very small screen for my installation of Maverick (it's on a VM and graphics support for Maverick isn't quite there yet), so when I go to use the software center page it can't display the entire page.

OS: Ubuntu Maverick Beta
Browser: SCA Browser
Steps To Reproduce:
1. Using a small screen, in perhaps a netbook, start software center and chose something to make a purchase
2. Once the SSO login screen appears you will notice it takes some difficulty signing in, but not impossible
3. When you are brought to the screen that asks you to fill in your payment details you will not be provided with a scroll bar and it will be impossible to see all the elements on the screen
NOTE: I was able to work around this by using the 'tab' functionality and hitting enter when the appropriate button was tabbed off-screen
4. Also note the glitches in the dropdown menu that appear on the smaller screen.

Expected Result: Should be able to see the entire page regardless of the size of the screen.

This is four separate bugs:
(a) The lack of scrollbars, which is caused by the window being larger than the screen, which is bug 635215.
(b) The sign on screen does not fit on a netbook screen.
(c) The payment screen does not fit on a netbook screen. The first step to fixing this is bug 637451.
(d) The odd appearance of the menu, which is explained in <https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=129463> (my own opinion on that is at <https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=622938#c2>).
