You mean the <select> element ?
IE doesn't allow much styling on that one.
Other browsers are affected by this:

which can make the <select> box narrower, in different ways depending  
on which browser/OS you look at.

see
<http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2007/05/15/formal-weirdness/>
why it is not such a great idea to style form controls
and
<http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2007/05/01/reset-reloaded/>
or previous articles on the same subject linked from there
(on why using the universal selector for that 'reset' isn't a great  
idea either)
