When I opened IE this AM, it opened as maximized, but
left about 10% of my desktop showing at the top of the
screen. Won't max further. Can't grab top and pull it
up. Gives me a scroll bar on the right to see the things
at the bottom of the page. It is as if the browser
thinks the "top" is about 10% short of the top. Never
had the problem before. All other MS apps open
normally. How do I get things back to "normal?" and What
caused the problem?
Thanks,
Duane
 
Duane,
Try:
With only the affected window open (and the taskbar NOT set to autohide)
grab the top of the taskbar and pull it up to twice its normal height. Then
close the window, resize the taskbar, reopen the window.
Or
With only that window open, right click the taskbar and choose "tile
vertically" (horizontally should also work.)
Or (a registry edit)
