That does not help. Do you see the difference between both the applications? One is more rounded and bolder while one is skinny, professional and more windows seven like-looking.

I know you can change the look/design of context menus:

What OS are you on? I'm on Win7 so mine kinda looks like the one you are wanting by default.

I guess it's OS dependent, the first image is in XP methought and the second is in Win7.

Try to change the RenderMode in its properties.
