This is a known bug for Win95. I just downloaded the latest SwingBug list
and the bug is still there:
4129402 bug 4 5 evaluated Win32:JOptionPane dialogs not sized correctly
There are a number of other bugs in JOptionPane. This is the result if you
grep with JOptionPane in the SwingBuglist:

default focus when dialog activated

You can follow the status of these bugs on the JDC or you just can send an
empty message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Then you get an auto-reply list of
the pending swing bugs. I am monitoring this list now since the beginning of
september and it stays about the same size (about 700 bugs) with
approximately 10 bugs a day added and about the same amount solved. Now this
is also because swing is back in beta with swing 1.1.
