Small window - make it grow

[caveman]

My IE has started to act strange. When I click a link and sometimes even opening IE itself, the window opens in minimised form. Where would the option be to always open window maximised. Or how else can I overcome this?

have you tryed going to tools - internet options - advanced - restore defaults - in IE just a suggestion :)

When you click a link, IE will usually open in a window - that is, not maximized. At some point the window has been minimised and then closed so that setting has been saved. Hence your problem.
To remedy this, maximize IE and change it into a window by selecting restore down from the top right corner, then drag the windows edges so that it fills the screen or whatever size you want, close it to save the setting. Next open IE again and click the maximize icon and close it again. Re-open and when you click a link it should open a new window at the size you dragged it out to earlier.
If you have a shortcut to IE rather than the main desktop icon you could also set the shortcuts' properties to 'maximized'.
Hope this isn't too confusing!

You're the man Marko. Surprising how one can create these little problems without knowing how. Then spend an eternity trying to remedy it. Thank God for these forums.

I had this prob a bit back and it drove me mad for ages. It so easy to solve when you know how.;)

Get a grow bag, stick the cd in the bag and voila, the windows should start to grow. :D
